I finally answered the phone today for a call showing 940-9413 on my caller ID. The solicitor started out friendly with his name (Randy or Andy) started his spiel "with the recent increase in your electric bill..." I asked what was the company he was calling from and had to ask him 3 times for the name because he spoke so fast. He said "Alternative Solutions" I asked him where his company was located, he said Central Florida. I asked him for the phone # and address for the company several times without getting an answer. He said you can pull up our info on the internet. He kept evading my questions and said I guess you don't need our help. I told him I just wanted to be able to check out who I'm dealing with before I give him any of my information and asked him for the purpose of his call. He was calling to offer us a "Free Energy review" and kept asking me if our electric bills were more than $125 per month for more than 6 months out of the year. I told him again before I would give him any of my information I wanted to have the contact info for his company so I know who I'm dealing with. HE HUNG UP ME.
We have received NUMEROUS calls from 940-9413. They have never left a message on my answering machine. When I've called the # back, get a recording "not in service." I have caller ID, one time the # showed Tarpon Springs, all the other calls had a V with a sequence of #'s which I believe to be an automated dialer machine system and think I have deciphered some of these #s from previous calls and today's call on my ID - V9201429460 0898
1st 3 #s today's date 9/20 - next 4 #s 1429 (2:29pm) in military time for a time zone 3 hours earlier than mine EST ( 5:29pm) - next 4 #s I'm guessing is how many times the auto dialer made calls for a certain time frame (460) and the last 4 digits I think may be the employee ID# for the person calling as that # has been the same for the last 6 calls for this month so far - 0898.
I have been on the National Do not call list since 2003 and have recently signed up for the FL DNC list as well
