I've received numerous calls in the last month from this number. Today was the first time I answered, and it I got a machine saying something to the effects of "sorry, we are unable to complete your call". No information regarding their business identity,etc was included which from what I've read is against FCC regulation.
I called the number back and got the machine message below. This looks like a scam to circumvent FCC rules to get you to call back and then offer something for sale. They claim to be exempt from the Do Not Call registry. Also, they offer to add you to their in-house do not call list, by having you leave your name and phone number after the beep (this was when I called them back). I did not leave my information as I have no idea who they area.
BEGIN TRANSCRIPT OF MACHINE MESSAGE HEARD WHEN I CALLED BACK
Good evening. Please accept our apologies for missing you on our recent phone call to your home. The call was regarding a special sales offer. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience our call may have caused. We are currently using the telephone to contact residents throughout the community. And we are offering a special family ticket to a benefit show sponsored by one of our many non-profit clients. Ticket sales are for $40 each and admit the entire family. Our clients are exempt from the do-not-call list. However, if you wish to be on our in-house do not call list, you may do so now. After the tone please clearly leave your name and telephone number including your area code. Please allow us 72 hours to process your phone number. Thank you.

I filed an FCC complaint about this. Please do the same at http:// esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm if you receive an unwanted call from the same number. The only way for any action to be taken is by filing a complaint. The more complaints received, the more likely the FCC is to issue a warning and fine whoever's behind the call.
