11:26 AM EST Same here. My folks live in NC so I called back. When I heard the automated message I pressed "1" and then hung up. I'm an idiot. Now that they know that it's a functioning number, I'm thinking that they will share it. These people need to be shut down!
This number called my cell phone @ 6:07 pm. 6-30-09
I did not answer because if I don't recognize the number I normally let it go to voicemail. I checked online and found this posting about the exact same number and just thought I write a quick post also. Nobody left a message. Just be careful, don't get scammed!
They called from 704-220-0638. A recorded message told me to call them back at 888-837-2927, so they could place my business in Local Google Search. The recorded message was customized to address my specific business! Did a Google search of the 888 number, with no results found. We all have two weapons against these callers: an answering machine, and caller ID! If you don't have them, get them. When you receive a call you don't recognize, let the machine get it. Then Google the number, and bingo! -- You find sites like this!
I also got the call on my cell, I did not pick it up. I called back later and got the same as everyone else..I would be very carefull and not press one as they might later use your reply as acceptance to some subscription by way of phone.
