We were receiving automated calls daily on our home phone, asking for my son who is studyiing overseas. When I got fed up and actually spoke with a live person, she refused to give me any information as to what the call was actually about - supposedly per federal privacy guidelines. I told her that my son was not available and did not have access to an overseas line and so could not take this call, so to either email him, send info via the post office or to stop calling. None of these options has yet occurred, and they continue to call and we continue to ignore them.
I have been harassed with automated telephone calls to my cell phone since mid-2010. The calls begin with "to accept, press one". I have been getting up to three calls per day. The callerid on these calls usually says 888-382-6623. Sometimes the calls come from the 302 area code.
The automated voice asks if I am "Daniel Corillo". On today's 2:30pm call I said I was "Daniel Corillo" and was able to speak with a live person who said his name is Matt Pendergast. He said that they were collecting an $811.37 debt for Sprint. He said the name of his company is Virtuoso Sourcing Group and were located at Parker and Peoria in Aurora Colorado.
When I said I wasn't "Daniel Corillo" and that these calls were a violation of the Federal Do-Not-Call regulations, he started yelling into the phone and hung up.
The interesting about this is that the calls would arrive on two different numbers, both my cell phone number and my Google Voice number. There is no relationship between those two numbers, and there was no way Virtuoso Servicing could have linked both those numbers unless they are running a scam. I think they are randomly blasting these calls to unsuspecting cell phone users.
they continue to call after being asked to stop. they ask for someone who does not currently own this phone or use this number.
