I received a call (caller id: 213-228-8111) on 1-16-2008 at 8:36pm (PST) from a lady by the name of "Sherri" representating a company (unintelligable?) that provides free selling kits for Google. Make money with advertizing via google system. She claimed I had submitted a form online to receive the free kit offers, but would not provide additional details when asked. She said the kit would be mailed to me within 7-10 business days to the location of my choice. Sherri then advised the kit was free, but I would have to come up with the cost of shipping the product. $1.00 for shipping?? I advised her I was in-between pay checks and was not able to pay for the shipping costs. HEHE. She then requested my debt or credit card # to process the $1.00 cost of the shipping. Once, again I denied her request by stating I only pay in cash. She aburtly hung up upon requesting more information from her.

I am not really sure where she picked up my phone #, but I could tell it was a scam off the bat. He accent sucked and her grammar was rather poor. Hope no ones pays anything (even a $1.00) over the phone to get financial raped by these f%%kers..

    Often shows as "Global reach int" on caller id, associated with various "213" phone numbers.  

    Known for repeated harassing telemarketing calls in violation of Do Not Call list.  Hawking various "products", running "government grant" scams, "on-line business" scams, etc. often reported to be trying to obtain account information to charge some small "shipping and handling" fee, which turns out to result in a much larger charge than the consumer authorized.  

    Of course they don't want your $1 cash, since then they wouldn't be able to charge the amount they really want to take.  If you gave them an account number, it wouldn't be free, or even just $1.

    "She claimed I had submitted a form online to receive the free kit offers, but would not provide additional details when asked. "

    Since they are widely reported to be calling even people on the Do Not Call list, they are probably not scrubbing Do Not Call numbers from their calling list as required by law.  Claiming that you made the initial contact is an excuse so they can claim they didn't violate the law, since telemarketers can call people with whom they have an existing business relationship, or who have contacted them first, even if the number is on the Do Not Call list.

    Providing "details" might only help uncover their lies.  Why would they want to do that?  They might not even be calling from any list at all other than the phone book, or maybe just dialing sequential numbers.  Law or no law, they are too cheap to buy the Do Not Call numbers, and scamming anyway so what do they care if they break another law?  But they sure have their "excuse" ready!

    These [***] have been calling me off and on for 2 years. The last round of calls was around September, and they've recently started up again. Some days I get phone calls from them starting at 8am, then several times through out the day all the way until 10pm! My husband has answered the phone a few times, telling them to never call my number again, and they hang up without saying a word. One day I called them back from another phones - the first time they answered they answered with a company name, I hung up. I tried back about 5 minutes later, they answered with "This is (someone's name here)", and I hung up again. I wanted to give them a taste of what they've been doing to me, calling every 5 minutes, so I tried a third time. They last time they answered they just said "hello?!" in an annoyed tone. If it was an actual company they would have to answer the same way every time they answered, and they didn't. So sick of their harassment!

    Same as the above.  My phone is on the national do not call list and my phone company told me to file a complaint with my police department.  Did not help.  I LIKE THE AIR HORN IDEA.  THANKS
