I got the call today from Karen VonSee (sp?). She was very pleasant and first started leaving a voice message but then I picked up as I returned inside. As she repeated who she was she almost said the name of the company but abruptly hesitated and changed it to "a company that was expanding in to my area." She wondered if I needed employment (I don't, I'm retired) or could refer somebody, which I couldn't. She left her callback number as 847-584-0244, although the call came from 847-592-5592 with a Caller ID name of "HOLMES AND AST((ASSOCIATES))". They, with that number, are listed as being located in Hoffman Estates, IL and a link to their web site brings up Primerica. I used to have a 30 year term life insurance policy with them when they were known as MILICO but when it expired 10 years ago I got a new policy with another company. That is probably how they got my unlisted phone number, unless somebody else referred me to them.
We got a call from that number...caller ID showed Pawlowski Assoc. They asked for my father who had passed away nearly 6 yrs ago. Tried calling the number back and it says "disconnected".
This is Frank Pawlowski from Primerica, a Ponzi-scheme type of operation like Amway. Like all the other scumbag insurance companies, they mine CareeerBuilder, Monster.com, and the like for ANY public resumes. If you have a name and a heartbeat, you are qualified to become one of their life insurance salesmen. The company is legit, but their tactics are deceptive and ultra-sleazy. They always say they are growing and adding new positions. Yeah, adding new suckers. Commission only...You don't make squat unless you are high on the pyramid. You just have to throw away all personal dignity and try to sell their insurance to unsuspecting friends and relatives. You've hit rock bottom if you consider this an "opportunity".
