So I picked up a call at work that was ID'd as coming from this number, based out of "Closter, NJ." We've never done business in New Jersey, but I've been getting silent robo-calls all day, and this was the only one with a pre-recorded message, offering me a business loan (which I don't need). Pressed 1 to get a live person to chew out, and got someone named "Jay" who tried to get my name out of me. I stopped him and asked him to confirm the business name, which he said was "Rapid Funding Group." As I was filling in the Do Not Call complaint form with the company name and the number I received the call from, that f***ing punk hung up on me before I could tell him to take my company off his list. Oh, I reported them to the Do Not Call registry and all that, but I was disappointed that the number didn't work both ways when I tried to call back and surprise the [***]. I hate these scammers, and I can't wait for the day some genius reconfigures the phone system to disable robo-call devices. And by "disable," I mean "remotely explode."
