Called and asked for the homeowner by name. When asked who was calling they kept saying the homeowner's name and eventually hung up. Lots of noise in the background like a typical call center. The caller's accent seemed slightly southern or from the California Desert. In other words, it sounded like a kind of ignorant drawl that really gets my blood boiling. Caller ID showed "DIR ASST CA" which I assume is directory assistance. The 555 prefix is allowed, only 555-0100 through 555-0199 are reserved for fictional use (see Wiki article).
