Got a call from this number today (Friday 2012-08-10). This number is new to my rotation of annoyance, but I've gotten over a dozen calls from the Caller ID name "HIGHLANDS" from 480-350-9607, 480-894-9342, 480-350-9910 and 480-894-9398:
480-214-2884 @ 11:29am - HIGHLANDS
I suspect this is from the same scam organization that has been calling me constantly from a variety of numbers for nearly five months now, more detail and numbers in my posts here:
The frequency and volume of calls from 800 numbers, businesses, telemarketers, and the like is getting to epidemic proportions. This Highlands company is NO exception. They have called our home for many months and we have NEVER answered. I don't know what they do or why they call. I am starting to be very suspicious of all calls coming into our home. I think many of these are becoming creative "smoke and mirror" companies calling for other purposes. Debt collectors using creative ways to get information from people, political organizations seeking votes, and marketing companies finding new ways to collect data and sell to the highest bidder. I am thinking of dumping the phone number alltogether, but it is nice to have a LAN line for inconsistent cell coverage. My advice to anyone who is willing to listen. DON'T EVER ANSWER THE PHONE to numbers you don't know. Too much dishonesty, scams, and outright harassment.
