i have started getting calls from these people. it's identified on my caller id as "british columbia" and says it's a business call. i also had a message, i think, from them where they said they were looking for someone with the same last name, but different first name, and to call back "regarding reference number" blah blah blah. i haven't called back. i finally answered once when they called, only to get an automated messages saying, "please hold the line regarding a business call" or something like that. i stayed on because i wanted to yell at them that i'm on the no call list, and they were breaking the law, only to get a message saying, "this is regarding PERSONAL business" which leads me to believe it is a collection agency. i decided to stay on and see what it is about and let them know they probably have the wrong person, but then a message came on saying, "we're sorry, but there is no one hear to take this call - we'll have to call back later."
freaks - THEY'RE the ones that called ME and left me hanging on the phone when i had other work to do.
