My boss forwarded me a voice mail he had from "Brooks Riley" with Laidlaw. I decided I'd have a little fun with them after reading this and called to see what they wanted, and of course, it wasn't to speak to me. "Brooks" himself answered the phone, but pretended he was someone else and asked if he could take a message for Brooks, I told him to take my boss off his calling list. He said they didn't have any lists and could he take a message. I repeated my message (2 more times). DUH!!! I know they will keep on calling, but at least I had fun with them, and they won't get through to my boss either! And Betty, I can relate to you! I have been the gatekeeper (as one boss called me) for many years. They think we are so dumb, but we know better!
I get the same kind of call from Tim Behr. I have spoken to him. he will give you the ticker symbol of a company to watch...the one he gave me actually went up about $11 a share, then settled back a bit. Then he calls again with another ticker symbol but wants to know if you can get 10,000 liquid to invest. If not, he says..how about just $3500..anyway, it goes on and on and you have to hang up if you want to get them to stop. I agree with an earlier comment..this sounds like some kind of trading "sweatshop" like you see in all the movies. Comes across sleazy with fast talking, and a response for everything you say. www.laidlawltd.com
I've been getting calls from a guy named Mike at Laidlaw, and similar to others who posted, Mike doesn't mention why he is calling. The number is a 646-449-7117. I'm not calling him back.
I had the same experience as everyone here - call from Dan Kuhar from some unintelligible company name at 646-449-7114. Won't call back or answer now that I see this history. Thank you to all who commented!
