Got a call from this number - from an "organization you've supported in the past." I spoke only German to her - which she said she didn't understand. Maybe we're off their list now.
We receive calls from this number two or more times a day. We don't answer calls that come from someone we are unfamiliar with unless they identify who they are when the answering machine cuts in. This has been going on for months. We are on the Do Not Call list.
Today when I answered and a person named Noma Haney was identified, she asked specifically for my husband by name and when I told her he was unavailable and how could I help, was given the flimsy answer that it was regarding magazine subscriptions he had. Well, he doesn't have any...so I guess this irritating caller will have to go back to the prerecorded messages about the last opportunity to lower credit card interest rates or fixing a problem with the computer's Microsoft software. I filed a complaint on another spam number yesterday with the FCC...looks like I will do the same with this number, too. What's really sad is that this number once belonged to a real business in Boston. Way too many calls from this number...of course if you try to call it back, it comes up a disconnected or out of service.
I've been getting calls from this number about five times a day for 2 or 3 weeks. Today I picked up (the woman asked for me by name) and interrupted the woman, telling her I'm on the Do Not Call list, I'm not interested, and please remove my name from your list. Then I hung up. Caller ID says Cambridge, MA.
Did another search on the number right after my previous post. The company is supposedly MCI WorldCom Communications- MA. Comments on that site were about being billed for long distance phone calls people had never made.
While typing this, I just had another call from the number, and picked up, to hear who they said they were: no live person, just a recording saying, "We're sorry, the organization trying to call could not reach you. We'll call another time." Weird!
