Yes I agree with all of you . . CID (caller ID) comes in as Bronx Local 314-627-5547. If answered no reply for whatever reason - never leaves a message.  Whomever is calling should you get to talk to them - by all means never do business with them please . . spam comes to mind - what's the law regarding this area? Anyone?

Telemarketing from the NY POST called me by name, I don't know them, on my mother open line over ccpd bldg#.  I marking them as cautions taken others report sources --- attribution to NY POST come over cid unit as Bronx Local (314) 627-5547.

ringing the phone and not speaking!

unknown caller

Received 2 calls within 5 minutes of each month from this number.  I did not recognize the number, so I did not pick it up.

I found this number on Caller ID.

Harassing calls from this number

Time Warner sells their list. I know because they spelled my name wrong and just after I signed upon started to get phone calls and mail for my misspelled name. When these people call, I don't say anything. Four times now I've had a person say hello after about two minutes of waiting. Personally I think it is a program checking if numbers are valid.

Also received calls from the 314, 978, and 217 numbers.  Answered none, but called each back and got the recording saying it's a free publication I recently received trying to contact me.  Reported all to donotcall.gov

Russ,

I too travel and have gotten calls from the 314 and 978 numbers.  I fly Airtran almost exclusively and rent from Avis.  Wonder if either of them could have sold the numbers?

Ken

Yep, call rcvd with a hangup after just long enough to burn a minute off of my prepaid cell phone, anyone got any ideas how they are choosing what phone numbers they are calling or what SOB sold our names to this outfit I am in the Engineering field as a consultant mainly in the electronics industry I use sbcglobal email addy, anyone match my profile? if we figure out a common thread we can get the source and boy do I want to!! I have had several of these calls over the past 3 days all from different #'s all the same details as this one 314-627-5547, 1-217-693-1136, and 1-978-485-0533 one each day .
I am notifying the phone companies the numbers originate from as well!
Thanks

just got this call at work. caller hung up after i said my name and "hello."

I got through, the message said they're a customer care company representing a free publication that I would be eligible for...added the number to go straight to voice-mail.

This number called me 3 times same thing. hello and hung up!!!!!! how do we block this caller?

After many attempts, I got through to a switchboard.  This is definitely magazine periodical marketing.

Thanks everyone for posting.  I avoid answering numbers I don't know and I confirmed it from your posts.  They call and don't leave a message.  Called me twice this morning about 1 1/2 hours apart with the 2nd call being a couple minutes ago.

I think it may be a debt collector.

It's a direct sales company its an mlm scam

They called twice this morning and hung up each time I answered. Like my initials, it's BS.

This number called my office.  Caller ID = D2 SEG4.  No one there.

i got call from the same number and hung up after i said hello

i had the same number call me then it hung up after i said hello. very strange

The Caller hung up after 5 seconds of me saying hello.  When I returned the call, an operator indicated the following: all circuits are busy now, try your call again later".
