Same focus group survey [***] with a different number every time.  Blocking the whole area code now.

I get periodic calls from this # on my cell phone - STOP CALLING!

When I received the call, they ask me some survey questions on the news and current issues facing America. 8 or 9 questions in total. You get some free tickets if you wait on the line once the survey is over, but  I hung up. Then I called the number back and they asked if  my number should be placed on the  "do not call" list, if so you press the number 1 on the telephone key pad and they say thank you and hang up.

alguien me llamo deeste numero para hacerme naspreguntas pero todo ea muyconfuso y no paran de         llamar me

BS Survey CRAP!!

Called asked for info: zip code, name and offered free trip to Bahamas for 2 days. I called back number and disconnected... Forgot name of website...

Blocked call 6/17/10 11:04am

Called and left no message. It'll be the last call I get from them, thanks to the "block" feature in Google Voice.

I have an unlisted phone number, how'd they get it?

They don't have it they just run through all the numbers with an autodialer.

It's a focus group and they called me at work!!

STOP CALLING!!!!

automated dialer, recording states "please hold the line, i'm transferring you now", found this on my voicemail.  No caller-id besides 4064263222.

I have a BFA in advertising and graphic design. I recently received a call from this RC Survey Group. I was interested that they opened the survey with "important issues" facing America. It's a good way to lead people in...I noticed that at the end of the RC Survey Group that they asked to hold on to connect you with an operator to get "two boarding passes" with your name on it.

So I googled "Survey RC" and I am pretty sure that it stands for the "Ritz-Carlton."  After reading a couple of different listings...I noticed that Ritz Carlton was also using "RC" as a short for things that had to do with their company.

They do throw one off pretty easily by asking questions that seem to be important about the "America's economy" etc. But their core questions that they are trying to really get at are:

1) How old are you?  2) What economic status are you? (they ask if you use a credit card/visa debit/or write checks?)

It's Survey RC--or Ritz Carlton.

Caller ID :: TRAVEL MQ :: This is another of those travel schemes. Fraud caller tries to sell you a tour package. It's a big scam, people. Do not even think twice about answering this number!

omg i wont this # to go away

It's NOT Ritz-Carlton... they don't survey. It's a new/phony name for a company that used to call itself National Research Group. Their only purpose is to get a few answers, and then sell your phone number to other scammers; the most revealing information you gave them was when you answered ANY of their questions... it signals the computer-dialer, "Hey, looks like we got a live one here... remember this phone number!" There is NO cruise, or trip, or boarding passes... the line will eventually just go dead. And if you call them back, pressing "1" WON'T remove you from their list... there is no list! Your number was dialed sequentially (555-1234, 555-1235, 555-1236, etc.), and until you answered, they didn't even know it was a valid phone number. And don't bother looking up whatever number shows up in caller ID... it's a fake. They didn't actually use a telephone circuit to dial you... just like Skype and MagicJack, it's a "virtual" connection into the phone network, and they can make it look like whatever calling number they want.

So is there anything a person can do to stop the calls?  I thought there was a law that says once you are on the do not call list, they can't call you without penalties?  BTW, I do answer because I have customers that call on the phone and I don't always have them in my contacts, so when I pick up this number, I just hang up.  I haven't found anything else that I can do.  :(

I just tried that. I hope it works. They have been bothering me for a year now.
