A lady with a very thick accent and the sound of a call bank in the background called and said they were with the "Washington State Business Bureau". Started asking if we were still located at (insert our address here) and if we'd found a new place to yet. Then she asked when we planned on moving. I asked why she needed this information and she replied "We updating information." I informed her that I'd just looked up her caller ID number and knew it was a scam, and never to call us again. We get these sorts of calls all the time. So annoying.
Our company just received a call from 889-777-1117 and also asked when we were planning on moving our offices. Our office is located in Calgary and they said that they were calling from the "City of Calgary Business Department". I said I was not permitted to give that sort of information out and they asked who could. When I told them there was noone who could help at this time he said "not to use that tone of voice with me. I am from the City of Calgary Business Department". I played along and said that if they could provide a number that someone with more authority could call back to I would have them return their call, they swore at me (charming) and hung up.
Indian speaking spammer asking if we are planning to move. I wanted to mess with them but they hung up. PUNKS let me find your location! ARH!
I received a call from this number. They said they were with the California Business Developement Center. I told them, "not if you are calling from this area code". They said it was a toll free number. While he was on the phone I conferenced him in with a call back to that number which said," this number is out of service and there is no new number". He hung up.
caller with heavy indian accent posing as Peter Mayors from the Michigan Business Development Office - Economic Department wanted to confirm our small business office address (an out of date address). Really persistently wanted to know our new address. When I asked what their phone number was they said (800) 974-8493). When I asked who his supervisor was he said he WAS the manager. I placed him on hold and googled information. I resumed the call and told him he was lying and hung up. He called immediately and I said don't ever call this number again and hung up. He called a third time and I blind transferred him to the local police department.
Could not understand where she said they were calling from as she said it so fast and mumbled it, then asked if we were still at our current location and knew our address. When I said yes they asked if we had found a new location yet. When I said we are not looking for a new location, the call then went dead.
Scam call. Do NOT answer them with a "yes" or "no". They can and will use that recorded info to say that you agreed to pay for something. If you are going to answer, answer with full sentences without using those two words.
My caller claimed to be calling from the City of London business team - when challenged, they insisted that they were based in the City despite the call routing via 00188. Three calls today - very irritating. Very suspicious. Least nefarious reason for call would be if they are a sales / research team working on behalf of a large international real estate company (eg: costar group / CBRE?). UNLIKELY THOUGH, and caller flatly lied about their location.
They have contacted four staff at our company. They continually call and as the statements above, they want to know when our company is moving. The accent sounds Indian. The caller has been very persistent, and has continued to call even after we have asked them not to. They will not provide a call back number, we also asked them to email their questions, which of course they did not do. The statements prior to mine have been very helpful and have also confirmed what we thought. That this number and caller are a scam!
Had a call today, and they kept asking to verify my address. When I asked who they were calling, they did give right company, and then asked me if we were still planning to move. I advised we have never intended to move, she responded with "Are you sure?" I told her that was a silly question, of course I was sure, but remove me from her list as I never asked to be contactd by her
