978-570-2053

978-570-2053 called... says "Credit Services", yet left a message re: a car warranty that is "about to expire" (Not on my cars!) but this scam has been using a lot of phone numbers and calling nearly everyone I know in my area - on "do not call list" or not.

This number is owned by Teleport Communications Group (TCG) a massive telemarking and telemarketing training and other "sevices" group. TCG is so into everything that you fill out something on line or at a trade show you give your permission for them to call you for anything. TCG sells your number and permission to its endless number of clients and then "claims that each of those cliets has it own call list". You can Get off of the TCG cliets list and TCG is just puts you on servral others.
  They have many many numbers and they rotate them -- They do provide a way for you to "take you number off the list for one of their numbers" They will just use the next one to call you.
  If you do go to the trouble of taking you number off one of their list they will explain that it is not going to do much good and -- get this-- they will include a solicitaion for a service that will  for a $100 a year get you off of their lists (plural) This is a little like the old "protection racket" where thugs would shake down shop owners agreeing to "protect" them if they paid a fee. What they neglected to say was that they were protecteing them form them and their friends.

Just had 3 simultaneous calls from this number, each one with dead-air.  Their automated dialing solution must be on the fritz.

Going to block this number before it causes any more headaches.
