Actually picked up phone and answered this number despite CID listing as 'Unknown.' Middle aged lady identified herself as from Southern California Telephone and Energy Co. I googled it as we spoke and it IS apparently a legit company. She said she 'works with' Verizon to lower my bill which numbers and particulars she quoted to me! So they have some access to Verizon. Told her I was on DNC List. Then I called the number on the company website (800-840-6673) and spoke with a real person from Cust Service. He sounded surprised to be getting my call and directed me to an Edgar Aguilar (800 481 4999) a supervisor at Cust Svc. Told them to take me off their list and change policy so they follow the law.
The caller said he was with Southern California Telephone Company out of Temecula and he could get us phone service for cheaper than Verizon. He got upset and hung up on me when I told him I was on the Do Not Call list and he shouldn't be calling me! I doubt he's legit.
These rats called and hung up. Some people get so mad they go out and commit crimes so why would these creeps keep calling people and hanging up if they don't know what the person might do. Maybe they will go out and set fires or smash car windows or something. If you don't know what the other person is going to do then don't call and hang up.
