Just called and claimed to be conducting a survery for NBC or something like that. Basically they wanted to know who in our household celebrated the most recent birthday. I smelled scam and told them I wasn't interested in giving them any private information...such as who lives here by looking up birthday infor
This number has called 3 times in the last two days. My caller id says that it is "out of area" and only gives the last seven numbers. I called the number back with a 678 area cod..e (678 is Atlanta area where I live). I called the number and their answering system says that it is Venture Data and that their website is www.venturedata.com. I smell a rat. They tried to call enough to think that they are looking for personal information or it some kind of scam.
I bought a house phone that I can program numbers in that I want blocked a few years ago. It works better then having Bellsouth block a call. It saves on major headaches.
