Caller ID said Missouri. There was no message/. So far today, there have been scam calls suposedly from Florida and Texas. Excluding territories, there are only 43 more calls to go. It is Spring and the saps arunning again.
We've received numerous calls from this number. After 5 calls that my dad received that same day, I answered (because apparently they are going after older home owners around our area to try to manipulate them) and I explained we don't want to be on their call back list. I asked to be removed, the lady who stated she was from solar energy kept interrupting me and being extremely rude stating I need to listen and give the phone to the home owner. I then explained its not that hard to do to remove us from the call back list and told her she needs to stop harrasing us. She hung up on me. She called again today, which I'm shocked. And told her do you not remember the conversation we had yesterday? She told me I needed to listen (extremely rude and was the same lady) I told her she needs to stop calling and hung up. Next time I'm going to start pranking her... Keep bugging me I'm going to start ordering pizza with her... Start signing her up for some interesting sites... This business is a horrible company.
This appears to be a solar energy telemarketer that is targeting older people. The "Do Not Call List" does not work because these telemarketers keep changing phone numbers before they can be tracked. You can block the number but they just change it to a new one and call you again.
I spoke with the caller, out of curiosity. He said his name was John Parker. I pointed out his Indian accent and asked for his real name. He didn't budge. I asked where he was calling from and he said Miami (oops, caller ID said Missouri). He said he was calling from Solar America.
It's funny to see read your message. I initially received a (spoofed) call supposedly from Miami, FL (786) 219-0475 around 11am EST. Of course I didn't answer it & immediately placed it on a block list. Then around 3pm I received another (spoofed) call from this number (816) 675-7154 supposedly from Osborn, MO. I guess these scammers can't actually remember what faked number they input when they call.
