801-456-4525

Just got called by this number.  A youbbg girl just giggled and hung up.

Multiple calls, never leaves message even when asked

Received a call from this number today Monday Jan 5, 2009 at 6:44:26 AM. No one talked and hung up after 5 seconds. I just want to know who is that individual and why is he/she disturbing me early morning?!!

Same here I just received this call, but i ignored it

Ive received a call from this number twice this week.  First time I didnt answer, no message left.  Second time I answered and there was no response.  Annoying

Received call today and didn't recognize the number so I let it go to voice mail.  They left no message.  Caller ID says it's from Cicero Research.  I checked their web site, and it says that they're a marketing research firm.  One of their customers is Citigroup, and if that's what they're calling about, I'd be glad to tell them to shove Citigroup where the sun doesn't shine! I've had very bad experiences with Citigroup (lies, cancelled money transfers that I needed to pay bills, and more lies), and I refuse to deal with them (Citigroup) anymore.

received this call from a guy ask me to give him a trash. i Hang up on it

If you call the number back an automated message tells you that this is a market research company that conducts surveys for a number of companies, they do not sell anything, but only call existing customers of these various companies to conduct surveys for them. Sounds like a bunch of b.s. to me...

missed call, no message, from this Utah area code

This is a telemarketing research group. They are calling to verify the phone number works. Then they sell it and POOF you get more calls from telemarketers. They should go away.

I called them. They do NOT sell your information.  They just appear to want to hear our opinion.  When you answer and no one is there it's b/c their system makes phone calls in the background and a call center agent isn't available to answer. They seem totally legitimate to me.

yup.  I called them too.  they're not selling info, just asking harmless questions.

They are part of an Identity theft ring. Do not call them back or answer their calls .

I am on the Do Not Call list, and just got a call from this number. If it's Commercial that makes it NOT legitimate.

I've received a series of Uninvited texts and a harassing voice call in the past week so I Googled instead of answering. Apparently the Number comes from Salt Lake City, Utah area.
I also found this:

Today at 300pm est, got a call on my cell phone which is on the do not call list.  I missed answering it but from what I have read, it is a research company.  These calls have got to stop, as it was a good thing I was not taking a nap.

got the call 1/21/2011, didn't answer, no message left.

They have called me multiple times with no messages left! I'm very tired of them calling me!

If you signed up for any type of at home based business thru the internet. You will get several calls from this company. The name on my caller ID this time was IBS. I've seen Cicero Research too.  Also keep seeing Merchant S.  The people calling are NOT customer service representatives. They will argue back with you. They will try and keep you on the line. They ARE VERY RUDE.

Just got a call from this number, shows up as IBS, at 9:38PM EST. Didn't answer, no message left.

I don't know what the market research company stuff is about.  Perhaps a front?

This phone number is one of two registered to:

IBSStart
1178 Brickyard Road Salt Lake City, UT 84106
Phone: (888) 856-8861 or 801-456-6618

They're a serious scam company which undertakes to rob you of all that you have.

One of their websites is IBSStart.com

Their IP Address, 66.93.277.100, is registered in Seattle by Shane Obray, and currently (April 2012) has seven hostnames for IDENTICAL websites:

EOEStart.com
Ibsstart.com
Platinumwebtraining.com
Internationalincomesolutions.com
Keystointernetsuccess.com
Ridgecrestlearning.com
Promgnow.com

When one of them gets into sufficient difficulty they just shut it down and create another clone site.

Also, find this statement on each home page:

"__________ offers complete packages, designed to fit a specific "services to budget" ratio."

This means that they'll try to determine what your assets are in order to extract the maximum amount possible from you.  

These people should definately be in jail.
