Preston Harris of Grand Companies called and said he was following up on a previous conversation he had with the owner. Owner says he never spoke with this guy in the first place. Gave a different call back number than the one he called from (214)384-4525. researched both numbers and Grand Energy kept coming up for this number. Also known as Grand Operating, Inc. Does he not know what his company's name is? Probably looking for investors.
Thanks to all of you for the heads up. Preston Harris just phoned, absolutely insisting that my boss knows him and would take the call. I did not put the call through and will avoid him. Any clue what he's trying to sell?
I dont know what he is selling but he's an idiot. He hates for you to hang up on him and he will call you relentlessly from his cell phone if you do. His cell phone has his name "preston harris" displayed. The company he calls from has all kinds of sites boasting they are an investment firm and something to do with petroleum etc.... It's no doubt some kind of scam. If he calls, make him mad. It's very entertaining.
THANK YOU for posting all these, i too almost took the call as i have relatives in Texas, glad I didn't after reading these postings. He is still at it, whatever "it" is...
Thanks again for the posts.
Got a call today from 'Martin Erland' (sp?) from Grand Energy (though caller ID said Grand Companies). When I told him that he couldn't have my boss's voicemail (he relies on me for his messages) he said he'd call back when he could talk to my boss. I told him he'd get put through to me no matter what and his response was "We'll see about that". I told him "good luck" and he hung up. Challenge accepted!
I also received this pushy sales call trying to reach the boss. I had to be rude for him to realize im not answering his questions or passing him through. Very rude and unprofessional.
