Caller claims to be from the "Voice Center" in Pittsburg. Odd, because the number that comes up on the caller ID shows that it is an area code on the south side of Chicago or its suburbs. The caller id shows "Client Department". The sales pitch is about selecting a power supplier as Illinois has been de-regulated. They ask for information off of your electric bill, which could be used for illegal purposes. VERY evasive about providing information like who they are, where they are from, etc. but polite. I did manage to get out of him that my number was on a list that they had PURCHASED from somewhere, where he would not tell me. Oh, and forget doing a complaint form with the FTC, all they do is re-direct you to the complaint form on the National Do Not Call website. Worthless [***]. You may have more luck going to the FCC's webite and filling out a form 1088b, and keep track of all the times you are pestered by these telemarketers and the id number that you are given after filling out the 1088b form for each offence,and still fill out the form on the DoNotCall website. Maybe someday we can sue these jagbags.
