The have the power to close a business but don't have the balls to call with their real telephone numbers. Show's how powerful they are.
Some guy with a thick Mexican accent called from the Washington Business Development blah blah blah and asked if we have planned on moving or have moved yet. I asked him when was the last time we were contacted and he said "last week." I asked for his number to have the owners call back (as per our policy) and he gave me the number of a business across town that is completely not related to this phony. Plus, I could barely understand this guy with his thick accent, probably an illegal...
They just called our office saying they were Quebec Development Office.They are a total scam, as is Quebec Development Office wouldn't speek french !!!
Same thing. Two calls in a row. 1st one a woman wanting to "update records"---she claimed to work for the Texas Business Development Office. Next one followed almost immediately. This time a man who claimed to work for Shermack Design. Ha!! Same number both times. Happens a lot, I'll start noting the numbers from now on. What do they want...? Big waste of my time!
We've been receiving calls from the same number 889-777-1117, also asking if we're planning on moving. The caller claimed to be from the National Statistics Office. We're in MN. The first caller, male, wanted our e-mail address. I sent the caller to voice mail. About a minute later a second caller, female, called back and spoke to another employee asking for our fax #. Does anyone know what this is about?
Illinois development office. Asked me if this was my address and i said yes and they asked when we were planning on moving. I said we were not planning on moving and then i said i don't understand why they were asking me why and who did they hear we were moving from and they hung up. It is really starting to get me ticked off with all of the crap
just got a call from an hispanic female from the 'state business development office' and wanted to know how our move went, as a follow-up.. ??whoa, you are calling me? [my state is so bankrupt, that would be about impossible] I said, from what state? she says "eeeerr Illinois" , yeah right, I asked where are you located? then she gave me my small town's name! so i said exactly where are you? and she hung up. Sounds like they are doing this scam in USA and Canada! Amazing how this and another recent caller restort to just outright lying to get info, I guess no surprise, but I feel for the off-guard business owner that forks over their business info to these crooks.... p.s. the carriers CAN and SHOULD do a much better job of immediately stopping caller-id spoofing ...if congress would pressure them. I know in this state, with the major carriers, ISDN/PRI circuit programming will no longer allow non-assigned numbers to go out [the typical way scammers slug in a bogus number] and putting in 800 numbers is now being checked too, but I think most states don't enforce this federal law...would be nice to see actual billing number on all caller-ids or legit 800 number!
We're in Vancouver BC, they said they're calling from economic development canada and asked if we're planning to move.
