I have only recieved 1 solicitation call from Globalreach and hopefully it will be the last. Here's how it goes:
6:30pm dinner time of course, I get a call and foolishly answer it. I gete a very fast talking (reading) salesman spending most of our time informing me how extremely reputable globalreach is, 5 minutes into this and I still have no idea what he wants. I am then put on hold, you gotta love that.
Chris the closer picksup and tells me about my free trip for 2. Ask where the wife and I would like to go? I have no wife!
well then the girlfriend? I have no girlfriend!
His next sales pitch is: Your a "[***] [***] [***]" at which times he hangsup.

You got to be kidding me!?

    Oh Oh oh oh..... I have an idea. how about we get a translator to tell them off in Hindu or some sh*t like that. I would help i think.
    2nd idea tell them to stop calling in Hindu or their language it might give them a clear messege.

    I've read these and other reports about that global reach calling at various times of the day and i'm also pretty tired of it, even though i'm on a do not call registry. But hopefully today i may have came up with a solution. A kind woman at our local phone company has told me to go to a website through the Government and i can put each and every number such as these on it and also cover both my home number and all of my cells. The website is: www.donotcall.gov . Try this approach as i know that i sure am and maybe this will help. After all if these grants were from our government why would the name be "global"reach international if the program was from our government? IT WOULDN'T

    They have called 5 times today, but I don't answer because I have caller ID. Very intrusive! Can't some authority stop this?

    My phone rang 4 times in one hour.  I did not answer any of the calls. My ATUT UVerse record stated that the calls were from Global Reach Int...  I went to GOOGLE and found this wonderful site.  I too am on a NoCallList. Where's the FCC here?

    By chance, did anyone email a guy by the name of "Henry Brown" at brown.henry.hr+1091@gmail.com before this (213) 426-2763 phone number started ringing on their phone?  I had "Henry Brown" contact me by email from CareerBuilder.com, claiming to work for "North Limited", who sent me an application for a customer service position that states on the bottom (where you sign your name) this: "I am aware that this position may require providing my own bank account for payroll purposes and possible payment processing."  No way.  I reported the guy to CareerBuilder's Trust & Site Security department for suspected fraudulent activity.  Ever since I got this email, I've been getting calls from this number almost each hour.

    I have been getting harrassing calls from these people as well.  Several times over the past 2 to 3 weeks I have asked for my number to be removed and yet the calls keep coming.  I have asked 2 times when they called me and then 3 times I have called them back.  If you keep calling eventually it goes through.  Each time they tell me (in a very heavy accent) that they will remove me from the list.  NOT!! The phone keeps ringing.  Today I finally had it.  They called and of course there was no one there when I answered the phone so I called back again but I called from my home number.  I got this nasty woman Anna on the phone and asked for all of the company info.  This is what she gave me.  The name of the company is Fast Grants which I had to ask her to spell and she got very annoyed that I asked her to spell it as if she was speaking clear English.  I asked where she was calling from and she said New York.  So I said where in New York and she said New York, New York. So I asked for the address.  This is what she gave me:  305 W. Broadway, Suite 114, New York, New York 10013.  

    I asked for a supervisor but she told me that there were none there.  I told her that I wanted to speak with her boss and again she told me that there was no one there and I'd have to call back.  What a load of crap.  I asked for her name which she proceeded to tell me was Anna and then I asked for the supervisors name and she said "I cannot disclose that information."  So I asked who the owner of the company is and again she said she couldn't disclose the information.  

    I then told her that the phone calls were harrassing and she said that I had signed up for the information when in fact I know I didn't so she told me I could investigate it on their website.  I asked her for the address which is fastgovgrants.com.  I looked on the website and I have never been there before.  I told her to stop calling me and take me off of their list and she said it is automated. I then asked why I have not been removed even though I have asked several times to be removed and again all she said to me was it is automated.  

    She was very nasty to me as we were speaking and we ended up trying to scream over each other.  She asked for my phone number and I wouldn't give it to her.  All they had been calling was my cell number.  

    I told her that it was harrassment and that they'd be hearing from my lawyer and I hung up the phone.  Not too seconds later she called back and I answered the phone and she said.  "This is your number.  Gotcha." and hung up on me.

    I cannot believe what is going on with these people.  I am calling my local news station because I have had it with this company.  

    On the website I found a toll free number and called it back and when I did the same woman Anna answered the phone so I hung up.

    213-426-2705, What is the deal? They don't take checks or money orders she says, only Visa info. I don't give that out at all and she insisted that I get a bank account to order the grant info. What kind of sales tactic is that? Go get a bank account so that we can charge you! Is this for real, has anyone gone through with this to find out?

    This group has called me for the past month.  My caller ID says "Global Reach International."  When I answer the phone, a woman asks me what kind of questions do I have about the grant I applied for online.  The first time I said I hadn't applied for a grant.  When I continued to ask questions, she hung up on me.  The next time I answered (tonight), the woman asked me the same question.  I asked her what the name of the company was again and was told "Office of Fast Grant."  I asked if they were affiliated with the fed govn't student programs and she repeated "Office of Fast Grant."  I asked her to give me the web address where I would have applied and she hung up!  I hate scammers!  I'd like to know if anyone has advice on how to report this crud!
