Got a call twice this evening from this number. The first time I answered & a person in a call center (I could hear all the other telemarketers in the background) asked to speak w/my wife. When I asked if I could take a message, he hung up. The number called back about a half an hour later. When I answered again, the other line hung up imeediately. I then tried to call the number, but got a recorded message stating that the number had been disconnected.
I received phone calls from 718-621-1400 twice yesterday and today. Each time I did not hear anyone speaking when I picked up. Today I called back but just hear that "the number you just called is not in the service" I an wondering who made the calls.
I have gotten calls from them before, too, although I never wait for them to say anything and I just hang up - the Ande thing rang a bell as I read this site, as I remember looking up the number. However, they are pretty smart, since I went to report them (I am on the NYState Do Not Call list as well as the Federal list) and this is what I got:
