These people are phishing for information - do not answer their questions!
They have been calling for the past few weeks/months trying to get information from our users. They claim to have relevant whitepapers to send to us, but they require personal and business information from us before they can proceed. Each time they call they claim to be from a different company. They are definitely trying to extract information from our users, which will probably be used to either scam them, or to sell the gathered information.
Caller ID is Hornell. Over the past two weeks, they have called at least twice a day asking for me, and I immediately send the transferred call to VM. Never a message, only the occasional call center background noise and a keyboard and breathing. Assumed telemarketer.
This number called me twice in the last 7 minutes. The first time they said they were IT Global Edge and this time they said they were a different company. Both times they asked for our IT manager by name and I asked them what this is regarding. They said they wanted to email him some free documentation. I don't give out emails to unknown sketchy companies. I let him know that I could send him to voicemail and I would forward the message to the IT manager and if the IT manager decided to call him back, then the IT manager could give him his email address if he wanted to. There was no voicemail left either time.
This 607-590-2105 number calls me at least 2-3 times a day. I've gone to giving them some nasty phrases and they eventually hang up. I think next I'll play around and state that they called in the middle of a murder investigation lol. There's a special place in hell for these people and I hope they're all heading there. There's no excuse for this harassment.
Says he's from Solar Wind asking if they can send I.T. white papers. I've been getting calls from this company, different phone numbers, once or twice a day for about a month. I asked them to take my company off of their call list.
