An old polite lady called for a short survey if have smokers,pets,asthma (legit concerns),
but that was the "cover-up story", in reality was using it to extract information such as "are you the owner of the house, how long you live there,whats your name, are you working" and i did not comply so she brought a new twist since i was waiting for her to call it quit, she thanked me and said because i helped she would put me in a draw for some kind of a prize and asked for my information . I replied to her No thank you i am fine the way i am, i need nothing. She realized the end was there and hang up before me.
THIS THE MOST POLITE INTERROGATION I EVER KNEW .

I got a call saying they were from a redemption centre in Montreal, Quebec and that I could use points on my credit card (which I don't have) to get plane tickets! Sounded like he was calling from a cell phone - it was all staticey and I couldn't make out the company name he said he was calling from.
