They called my cell phone. I didn't get to the phone to answer, but as I am expecting calls from this area code, I called the number back. They answered "Fun Control Gift Department, this is Courtney." I googled it, and there is no such thing, but there is an Eden Prairie (area code 952) window replacement place called "Sun Control". Either way, it's not who I was expecting, so they're on the block list now.
They called two weeks ago, addressed me by name and asked if I'd participate in a short survey about air quality "in my area." They called back today to inform me I'd been "selected" to win a prize (a digital camera, emergency car kit or 2-day/2-night stay at a fancy hotel). They could deliver it at various times today or tomorrow. Would my wife be home, too? Why, I asked. Well, they'd like both spouses to be home for a "brief demonstration of air purifiers." Sorry...I want nothing to do with you! I hate scams like this! I've had no previous dealings with this company and this tactic is deceptive.
This number called once yesterday evening - I misssed the call - no message left. I too, am on a nationwide "no call list". They need to do their homework before calling!!
A few days ago someone called and asked if I'd be interested in taking a short survey. My name would then be entered into a drawing. Today, this number called 4 times IN A ROW. Seriously. As if that wasn't irritating enough, when I finally did answer the woman was very hesitant to give me any information. She kept answering my questions with a question and refused to give me a straight answer. Then she hung up. WOW.
The number shows up as "ENVIRONMENTAL S" on the caller ID.
A few days ago someone from a (952) 746-6683 (Summit Air Indu) called and asked if I'd be interested in taking a short survey. My name would then be entered into a drawing. Today, a different number (952-944-6036) called 4 times IN A ROW. Seriously. As if that wasn't irritating enough, when I finally did answer the woman was very hesitant to give me any information. She kept answering my questions with a question and refused to give me a straight answer. Then she hung up. WOW.
When I called back her "sales associate" claimed she was on a break and would call me back in 10 minutes. She never did...
The second number shows up as "ENVIRONMENTAL S" on the caller ID.
