Pushy caller from a company called DCS.  Somehow, these [***] got my work number and are harrassing me to answer their calls, and have even bothered my co-workers when I didn't answer (i.e. being very rude to them, asking for my personal information, and even my bosses' names!  So far they've called 6 times just today.  Jerks.

I got a call from Shannon Jackson who works for DCS - which stands for Diversified Collection Services Diversified Collection Services, Inc.
P.O. Box 9049
Pleasanton, CA 94566-9049
(888) 335-626

Shannon Jackson called from San Angelo, TX (325)224-6107 but asked that call be returned to the Texas number (area 888-335-6267 X6176).  This is Diversifed Collection Service (said so - DCS - on Caller ID), which among other things collects debts for federal Dept. of Education. Asked for former relative who doesn't live here, and wanted to know her work schedule.  I didn't know it, didn't have her cell phone or work number, but took her (Shannon Jackson)'s number so I could plug it into Google and see who she was.

Correction: (888) number is is California.  San Angelo number (325) is boiler plant for collection efforts.

asking for another person, respresenting that i was used for reference. told them to not call here again, as i will report it as a harassing phone call with my phone company. female on the phone said, so you don't know this person. told her it didn't matter if i did or didn't, i'm not that person, so quit calling here. then i hung up as she was still running her mouth on me being a reference.
