Asked for the owner by name. I told her "No, what do you need?" She said she needed the owner. I told her he was married, what do you really want? She said it was important to talk to him, so I told her to call him at home this is a business.
You can wind any of them up with repeated calls...seems they do not desire being harasses on the phone.....some start screaming right away....we have used a whistle and called from all the numbers available to us....Scammer Jammer is one reply and we have also called to tell them we are just wasting their time like they do ours!!! I invited everyone to harass they back!!!!!!
Same as described by others - Loud, rude man demanding to speak with the "president" of the company. I said I was the co-owner, and he demanded to speak with the "majority" owner. I said this is our home number, not our residence number, and that the owner is not here, he's at work. He said someone with their company had an appointment with the owner today, and he needed to speak with him. I said no they don't, and who are you and what is this company. He said he was "Michael" with "The Moore Company," and it was about some litigation, and demanded to speak with the owner again. I said, did you not hear me, he's at work, he's not here, we don't have any appointment with you, and there IS no litigation. I guess I wore him out, because he said, "thank you" and hung up.
I expect he'll call again today.
Got a call from these guys as well. He identified himself as 'Jim" from the Smith Industries. Asked for the owner. I knew it was a spam call because only spammers call my boss by his full name. I parked him on hold, and he called back. When pressed he told me it was for a legal matter. I asked the boss if he knew anything. He said no and that was that. I gave "Jim" the opportunity to leave a message, but he didn't answer me so I hung up. He called back again and accused me of hanging up on him again.
That's when he went from arrogant to abusive. He started yelling and told me he had an 845 appointment with "Boss" and to put him on the phone. I told him no. He just got louder and said his appointment was for 845 and for me to look at the clock and tell him what time it is. I said, "Why anre you being a jerk." and he kept yelling "What time is it!" then he switched to loudly demanding I put "Boss" on the phone. I yelled back that what he was doing was illegal and for him to take us off the call list immediately and to stop calling. He just kept yelling back and telling me it was a legal matter and that my boss had an appointment to speak with him and to GIVE HIM THEW MESSAGE!!!11!! I told him the boss had already declined to speak with him and for him to stop calling and hung up. He called back 2 more times and we let it roll to voice mail.
Keeps calling. I finally decided to answer. Wanted to talk to the owner of company and mentioned his name said he had an appointment to talk to him at 4:30pm. Asked me what time it was here. I informed him that he wasn't here. Evidentially he doesn't understand English. Told me to tell him he was holding for him and he was from the Garza Group. Wanted his direct number. Didn't give him any other information. He wouldn't tell me anything, said it was confidential. He hung up before I could hang up on him!
