Unsolicited call wanting me to sign a petition
Complaint
LC
Country: United States
Posed as a survey about television and electronic device ratings so protect children and families. Wanted me to press 9 to electronically sign their petition. I refused saying I would like more information about the issue and the organization before I would provide any personal information. I asked if there is a website to get more information and the first thing that comes up is the fraud information. The number they were calling from: (469)317-0927.

This also shows up. Looks like FTC's not very happy with them.
