That reaction says it all.

Got a call from "Cat Fancy" offering a reduced subscription rate and asking for my address.

Thanks to caller ID and this site, I have never picked up the phone when this number calls. I recently bought a subscription through Publishers Clearing House and that most likely triggered these calls. The timing fits. Even though I have not answered these calls, I keep getting them 4 or 5 times daily, sometimes 3 minutes apart. Very annoying!

They called today asking for Marzena Wilson - told them wrong number.  This number has been calling me for weeks on end.  I have no idea who Marzena Wilson is nor do I care.  Annoyed!

I got a call from this number on my day off, I was trying to sleep in and they woke me up. A man told me he wanted to confirm my new subscription to 'Cat Fancy' magazine, he asked me if I had a pen handy to write down some confirmation information. I told him he just woke me up on my day off and that I didn't want to get out of bed, he then said "Oh, take your time, I get paid by the hour" then laughed. I was starting to get suspicious at that point, I mean how [***] rude, terrible customer service. However, I obliged. He told me some order# and that it would be $45 for a 3 year subscription. Then he handed his phone over to his "supervisor" who wanted to confirm my address, he knew what my address was which is kind of freaky. Then he asked me how I was going to pay. Up until then they has made it sound like they were only confirming that I had indeed renewed my subscription (which my grandmother had done for my Christmas present). So I instantly said "Ohhhhh, this is a scam!" The "Supervisor" said "No Ma'am..." I cut him off and said "If this were real then you would already have on file that this subscription has already been renewed!" They then hung up on me, and when I tried to call the number back, an automated message told me that "the # or code you have dialed is incorrect"
