Today this man called me from this number and asked me for one of my sons by name. I nievely responded that he had been dead for 14 years. This "gentleman" told me if I was going to lie I should make it believable and say 6 years instead of 14, then continued to call me a liar. I was in a state of shock. How could anyone be so heartless? It's bad enough losing a child, but to have it rubbed in so callously isn't human. I get 5 to 6 "no one there" calls a day. Could it be this same person? My oldest son showed me how to retrieve a number, so now I can keep track and if this number shows up again, I will not answer. It's a shame I will have to be leery of answering my phone from now on. And, no law protecting the public from predators like this man. I will pray for him.
This number has been repeatingly calling about Home Remodeling. We said no multiple times. You need to stop calling. Otherwise I'm taking legal action.
Folks, please pay attention: if you think that posting your complaints, and making requests to have your numbers removed from any list on this forum is going to work, you're sadly mistaken. These telemarketers don't care if you're on the Do Not Call List; they don't care if you don't want them to call; they don't care if you call them names or hang up on them. They don't care if it's illegal. They are relentless. They will never stop. Best advice? Put your phone on silent, and never answer it. You are not required to answer that appliance. Let it ring, forget about it, and go on with your day. If someone wants to reach you that badly, they will leave a message.
Dave LB you are correct. But what can we do about these calls. I get them all day from various numbers. I filed a complaint with every agency I can think of. Poor old folks that actually answer these calls.
At first nobody there and blip a call center noise and a voice asking for my spouse. I asked who he was and I got "Paradise Builders." I yelled at him that I wouldn't do business with illegal telemarketers and crooks and hung up.
