Same thing here; they call, I pick up and there is no one on the other end and then they hang up. So I blocked the number, they try calling again later but realize they're blocked. So what do they do.....call from a different number. So frustrating!
Like another reviewer on here, "Chris Newman from Stanfield Jackson" claimed having called me last year (of course I didn't remember, I'm fairly certain they've never called me before). I decided to go with it and see where it went:
He gave a long spiel about how the company had worked with SORL Autoparts stock and claimed they were directly responsible for it's stock price hike from Feb-Jun 2017. Then "Chris" went into a band new stock called NUGL "the Google of the cannabis industry" and claimed he would help me buy stocks at a discount price (NUGL just barely went public), saying they don't get commissions, but get their compensation by way of stock warrants.
I tried looking things up while talking, and asked why I couldn't find the stock on the Robinhood trading platform. "Chris" said someone else had used Robinhood without any problems (this sounded very much like a lie, he didn't lie well when he went off script), but after consulting with his manager, who I could hear feeding him lines, "Chris" said they would give me a number to call the Robinhood trade desk and make a trade deal.
"Chris" wouldn't accept my pledges of small amounts ($50 or $100). He started out asking around $10,000 for this brand new stock NUGL claiming that with his company's sponsorship (stanfieldjackson) it would go from current price of around $0.75 up to $4.00+ by June.
"Chris" talked closely with another person multiple times, who often audibly told "Chris" what to say. After some debate, the least he would accept was $2,500, and I eventually got him to hang up by saying I would call him back after consulting my financial advisor. I'm guessing I'll get harassed again when I never call, and will have to block his number.
