Got the call from Abe Delgado Caller ID said: 631-870-4339 but he gave number 888-836-7686 x146 saying he works for Merrill Gardens retirement community and wanted to add us to their list of preferred attorneys. Could hear TONS of other people in the background making the same exact call. I flat out asked him "You don't have a local phone number, I am on Merrill Gardens website now and they have a local number" He was flustered and said he didn't really work for Merrill Gardens but for a company called "Perks" and they this was a limited opportunity that he could only choose ONE attorney to add to their "Perks Card".... Sorry buddy, if it was "so good" people would be coming to YOU to be added, not the other way around. Another sales call for the trash bin. I know we all have to make a living, but his job of trying to sell a worthless product sounds sad and depressing. Good Luck! He won't be hearing from me!
Well gee, reading above ... ya know I'm thinking this is a bunch of , (well you fill in the blank.) So anyways my caller was Christine and she was from/with "Employees from Bethonie Retirement Living" looking for an "Event Planner". Gave the same return 888 number above however her extension was "255". Yes I heard the same background noise and so on.
Got a phone call from 631-870-4339 and they left a message saying they were Bethany Retirement Living and he was looking for a DJ service that some of their employees can go to for weddings, bar mitzvahs, sweet sixteens and special occasions. Gave name as John Gibbons number 888-836-7686 ext. 257. Not sure why a retirement community would need a sweet sixteen or bar mitzvah DJ. And also my business is not a DJ service anyway. Not even close. Not sure what they are selling but I'm not buying it or returning the call.
It is from the Perks, which is a bordeline scam.
I've signed up with them once, they promised an exclusive listing to state employees.
Not shortly after I signed up I saw that one of my competitors had signed up with them for the same thing. That, right there, is false advertising.
On top of that their "advertisement" produced absolute no results. Fortunately, it wasn't expensive either but save the money for yourself and ignore these guys. I'm blocking their number right now.
Marty at ext 265 claiming to represent Griffith Laboratory employees in Alsip. Gave number888-836-7686. Said he was with perks connect and I would see such volume that I may even have to cancel it a while till I hired more employees....$198 for four months.
