Called my business voicemail this morning stating that he has a client moving here to the Hampden area, then corrected himself to say Hampden County. He said his name was Richard Shirkey. NO other details except his number. Voice was harsh and sounded bored.
All of our referals go through our Relocation company or our Office Manager, so calls like this are suspicious.

This is a Referral Scam company out of Missoula Montana that claims to guarantee every referral but charges an up front $99.00 per referral.

Same as above. This Richard Shirkey person, obviously reading from a script. Said he had a referral for me - someone looking to purchase a home in the area. I could hear another person in the background, as he was reading from his script, who was saying the same things as he was - verbatum.

I received a call from Richard Shirkey from Real Estate Referrals, and he stated he had a customer wanting to purchase in Cecil County, MD. We also have a relocation dept. within our company, and these are referral companies that scam Real Estate Agents.

This guy named Richard Shirkey (Jerkey I thought) also called my business voicemail this morning stating that he has a client moving here to SC. His voice did sound rough like he was out of breathe and I agree that he also sounded bored.  He was definitely doing this job out of duty not delight.  Why can't he just be honest and leave a message that tells the truth.  Honesty goes a long way verses deception.
