Just in the last 3 days I have been getting calls from this company and I dont know who or what it is. Just this evening I received two such calls within about half an hour.
The person calling me couldnt even pronounce my first name right and how they got my number is beyond me. She was not an English speaking person. The number I have on my caller ID is:  213-452-6539. I usually dont answer the phone after 9:00 pm my time, but not knowing if its an emergency or not, I did tonight.
What ever you can do to stop this, I would greatly appreciate it.

 Yours truly,
  Sybil Johnson

    File a complaint with FTC if you are on the Do Not Call list.  If your are not, go to ftc.gov and put your phone number on it.  This will not stop Globalreach from calling, but it will make their calls illegal.

    Received call tonight  from Globasreach about a opportunity to work for Google.  A package would be mailed to me within 10 to 14 day. The info was free, but there was a charge of s/h of $1.96.  " How would you like to pay for s/h, credit or debit?  I told them to bill me and they hung up.

    I received a call from this "company" at about 8pm central time trying to offer me some sort of job. The woman on the phone has trouble speaking english and had trouble pronouncing my name. The phone # used was 213-228-8111. I don't know who this company is or what they wanted. I am planning on making arrangements with the FTC website.

    I receive a call almost on a daily basis from this number: 213-533-8042  The name on caller ID is:  Global Reach Int.
    I try and call them back and the recording says you cannot reach them.  I am sick and tired of answering the phone to be hung up on. This is a business and I am missing ligitimate calls to answer this bogus call. I hope the FCC will soon be investigating them.  I know I will be reporting them. I also will be contacting the phone company.

    I was filling out surveys , and the global reach int had a pop up about grants.  I must have filled it out because now they call here at least 10 times a day.  Today , they talked to my boyfriend, and when he said that he wasn't interested, they hung up.  Just like the letters above, who ever calls, cannot pronounce first names let alone the last name.. the number listed is 1-213-228-8111  and you can not call them.  Seems very Shady.

    This is a new phone number to my home, of course I'm not expecting any to be calling. This company has called me a numerous amounts of times-I answer the phone and they hang up, no one says anything. I'm actually on hole with this company now-for about 35 minutes just to tell them verbally not to call. I'm  definitely putting this on a"do not call"$#%^& list. They are a pain!

    These idiots keep calling me, too.  I called the number back and was on hold for 72 minutes before I hung up.  I have filed a complaint with the fcc.  I don't think you have to fill out anything about grants, just one of their "phishing" techniques to get a phone #.  Has anyone gotten a resolution to this?  The last time I answered the phone (they ask for my husband) I didn't even give them a chance to speak.  I just shouted into the phone "FOR THE 5TH TIME HE IS NOT HERE AND DON'T CALL BACK" and hung up.  It's been an hour and a half now...longest stretch between calls today :)

    Global reach Int has started calling me about 4 days ago at first it was only 4 calls -2 calls withing minutes of eachother then a little while later the same. Yesterday I was expecting an important call so when they called I answered then hungup, it was like they decided they would show me, over the course of the next 3 hours they called 27 times. Tonight I had the machine on they don't leave messages but as I was watching the phone and I have caller ID I knew it was them and they preceeded to call every 15minutes. How do we stop these people and who are they? One of the number they have called from is 213-452-6539 I've already deleted the other calls. I have file a complaint with the BBB but as GRI already has a rating of F it doesn't look like the BBB can actually make them stop. Who can I just reregistered for the do not call list so I can't complain to the FTC  I never realized they original one expired when the list first came out. But bottom line they need to be prosecuted for harrassment at the very least 1 call ok but call after call after call is an invasion of privacy at the very least.

    I want these annoying calls to stop!!! (213) 452-6539  I believe that they are a credit card company for entrepreneurs who take all major credit calls.  I beleive this is a sales person trying to get me to take on accepting all major credit cards from my customers.  These calls are an evastion to my home and privacy.  TIRED!!!

    The lady asked for Debra E. Kitchen. She said, that she was calling, because I was eligible for a grant by the government. I just had to pay $1.95. I said, I'm not interested in it right, now. That with everything there is a catch.

    They too called me today, I just told them that they have called the wrong phone number if this is really a government grant call then why not state this when they call what is with the games. Just remember if they tell you they need money it is a scam because it doesn't cost money to apply on line or at the school for grants  the only fees will be when you have to mail back forms of which most of us done when applying to go to college etc.

    I received my 5th call within 6 hours, each time telling them to take me
    off their call list.   They continue to call.   I tried to call the
    number back but got "this computer system is not available now."   I spent
    the better part of today answering their irritating calls.   I have hung up on them, but they continue to call.

    I have been receiving a phone call from 213-426-2701 consistently between 8-8:30pm every night for the past month. It is really starting to annoy me because it wakes my little one up every single time the phone rings. I haven't answered it, but like I said it's very irritating. Since I have been on careerbuilder.com I have been receiving MANY weird numbers calling my phone. When I investigate it, it is always connected to a scam. I would really like to make it stop. I have removed myself from careerbuilder.com, but I think it is too late and all these jerks have my number now. EEERRRGGHHH Does anyone else see a correlation between these numbers and careerbuilder.com?
