This is a TELEMARKETER!!! Possibly a scam artist. Called my CELL phone and three times at least. Told me I'm entered in some stupid contest. I didn't listen to anything else. But I'm sure they want money for something. Beware!

I looked this phone number up on the net and says it was a residential phone number from Sneedville, TN.  I come to find out it is a telemarketer who got a hold of my number.  I never answered the call because I didn't recognize the number.

I'm getting the same thing as everyone else here: I've received three phone calls total from this number, one of which was at SEVEN IN THE MORNING. That ticked me off incredibly. Just today, I have received two phone calls from this number, one at eight-thirty this morning and one just moments ago (about five in the evening). The first time they called (the seven am call), I actually answered because I thought it might be about a job application. However, it's some guy telling me I won a sweepstakes (which apparently I entered just by owning a Visa/MasterCard/Discover Card). These calls ALL end the same way--trying to get you to buy a magazine subscription that ends up costing you $600 or more, which by the way is now ILLEGAL. I've been hanging up on them today, but the next time they call you (this is what I am going to do), tell them to take your number off their call list. They have to do it.

this number has been calling my daughters cell phone, they even called her by name when she answered - i tried to call them back, but either it just rings or i get a busy signal - it makes me very uncomfortable for them to be contact a childs cell phone and call them by name (the bill is in my name) - there has got to be a way to stop these people

this number called my CELL PHONE twice today. once in the morning, followed a few minutes later by another call from a different number in the same area code, 423-733-8137) i didn't recognize the number or even the area code, so i didn't answer the first time. when i checked the white pages, this is the information i got:

Type: Land Line
Provider: South Central Bell
Location: Sneedville, TN

the next time the number called, i picked up and some woman who KNEW MY NAME told me that i had been entered into some kind of sweepstakes just for having a Visa/MasterCard/Discover Card and that i had a chance to win 25 thousand dollars and/or a trip to hawaii. she then wanted to confirm my year of birth and my occupation. i told her my birth year, and that i was a student. she seemed thrown off for a second, and then asked if i had any source of income to which i said "not at the moment." she then seemed in quite the hurry to get off the phone with me.

so i guess it's a good idea to tell a telemarketer that you don't have a job!
