Google hype all hours every day

I get calls from these clowns on a consistent basis. Today's call didn't have a name attached, just listed the phone number twice. 586-231-3711. Usually the associated name is "Local Rank." I am getting beyond fed up with the irritating "Our records show that you have not updated your free google listing" message. What are they hoping to accomplish? (other than driving us to distraction, I mean) I don't know if this is related to the phone company that we go through, I use Vonage. Maybe they are selling our info?

I have also received calls from R2J2 Company from 484-589-5591 and 914-530-2334. Both of which were hang up calls. I did a quick search on the numbers and found that people have also gotten the "update google" message from them. I have received the same call from many different numbers, but they have since been deleted from my Call ID so I cannot post them.

I also found a possible motive behind their harassment and some sound advice from a user named Daniel. It is as follows:

"This number is a robocall looking for live numbers (numbers answered by humans) to make a list that is sold to collectors, telemarketers and of course, scammers. The best is not to answer, much less press any button. And report it to the Don Not Call List. Also, it is better not to mention your name in your voice mail message, this information can be sold too."

C'mon n' update yer gOOgle....

It obviously does not work. Do Not Call is just another incompetent government agency.....that does nothing.

Ours is a business number and those are exempt from the DNC policies.

Their caller ID is LOCAL BRAND, somebody looking for a fool who will part with his money

Why are these "leeches" allowed to keep doing this?
I'll tell you why. They are the scum of the Earth!
Our government is a useless bunch of leeches also.
The DNC list is a joke!  As long as the telephone cos. keep making millions on these b*****ds, this WILL NOT STOP!
The FTC and the FCC are nothing but a bunch of do nothing pay rollers. They are useless.
They are concerned only about
'when is my next raise'.
'When is my lunch hour.'
'When do I get more vacation time.'
'When do I go home.'
They care nothing about any other subject.
So be prepared for the telemarketing scammers to increase there calls on us .
In other words...They are government workers.

I turned off my caller ID (*67 on my service) and called them back. It goes immediately to a recording that says "to remove your name from our calling list, press 1" or something similar. First off, if my call is blocked they don't have a number to remove. Secondly, if my number did display for them I'm sure they'd just add it to a "real live person" list and I'd received even more spam calls. I'm reporting them to the DNC list now.

'Am on State & Fed DNC lists.  This number calls & calls.  Let's it ring 20 plus times too.  I refuse to pick up.  This caller is very annoying with how often they call, day after day, week after week.

This is a illegal robo call!! Why are these leeches allowed to keep doing this? FYI I just reported them!

They call every day, never answer but see it on caller ID. Thanks to whomever created this site so that I may continue to ignore calls that everyone gets and no one wants.

Same old, same old, annoying A-Holes! Hard to believe that I have 30 of these jokers blocked at any given time.  Of course.............the USA government does nothing even if you are on a n"no call" list. They have trouble delivering the mail, so catching up with these Yahoos would be like performing brain surgery for them.

Caller from Huntington, CT. No message left. Most posters report "Google" scammers. Caller ID shows Shelton, which makes it in Connecticut.

They say they are from Google...and to update my listing.

Same 203-538-0980 number just called and I never answer unknown calls. Caller ID read Shelton CT and I'm in CA.

I have received two calls in two days from this number.  I receive calls almost daily from a revolving caller id name, and constantly changing phone numbers and I think they are all the same people.  I don't answer my phone any longer.  I've blocked as many numbers as I'm allowed to  block so can't block any more.  I've been on Do Not Call for years, and don't find that it does any good.

Seems like a collection agency fishing for information  ... Beware of your privacy.

Talks about a directory listing.  :)   What BS !!

The message stated "you have not updated your Google listing, press 1 to update and press 9 to be removed from our list. I keep pressing 9 and they call every other week.

They called - I blocked.

They also use 570 983-2218.

Both numbers are now blocked!

203-538-0980
they ask to update free google listing. So annoying they call three time a day with different phone numbers. i filed a complaint with national do not call and they still freaking call!!!

Just recieved a call for this number on my cell. I ignore as usual.

"Our records show that you have not updated your free Google listing".  Just another Google listing scam.

Let it go to voicemail. Caught tail end of their recorded message on voicemail. It was about "updating my Google listing" (which I don't have!). So they're spammers!

They just called me on 2 different numbers.  I didn't answer, and they didn't leave a message on either voicemail, but the fact that they called on my 2 different numbers makes me think they might know me rather than just be a junk caller.

I don't answer these calls. Have no idea who "Local Rank 8" is, which is what my caller ID showed. Truly getting tired of calls from people I have nothing to do with and as I don't owe anybody any money wish they'd quit randomly dialing people as this is harrassment plain and simple.

no message

I just did but did not answer it. Of course, my number is on the DNC list but I receive calls on a daily basis from BS numbers like this....
