Got a robo-call at my office giving me the sales pitch to "send a representative" to my home to evaluate my energy consumption, how to save, etc.and that the government was awarding cash to people who had more energy efficient homes. I thought I'd be nice to let them know that this is not a residential number so I pushed 1 when priompted - got an obvious call center (chatter in background - but not "off shore" sounding). Started to explain to guy on the other end that this number was not residential.....click. Think I'll report this because it sounds very much like a scam - would not want to see someone elderly or vaulnerable be taken advantage of. And Jan is right - it is not a "reachable" number - that screams SCAM to me.
They want to help you get Energy Tax credits. They will "send a representative" to evaluate your home. Won't say who they represent, they don't have a web site, they don't give up easily and they call regularly.
