Yeah, they definitely just called me... At one in the morning...
Just seemed a bit odd, and very annoying.

wtf

Called saying she was from Alabama State University and they were calling students to see if they needed help paying back loans or needed any forms. I mean, I did graduate from college . . . why would I fall for that? Just an attempt to get more of my information, and the number is not even registered to ASU. On top of the fact that I attended there for only one year and am an Alumni of another University.

I guarantee it is from a university that you may have attended or graduated from. I graduated from Auburn University of Montgomery and they usually call every year to get a donation. Why didn't they offer those funds to me as a student and now they want to make a donation? Have they lost their minds? It's not the school directly but a company they contracted with to make the calls.

I GOT A CALL FROM A LADY ON SUNDAY MAY 29 2010 ASKING FOR ME BUT MY FULL NAME ON MY BOOST PRE PAID CELL PHONE. I NEVER USE MY MIDDLE NAME. SHE ASKED ME IF I WAS BUSY I SAID NO SHE WOULD THEN ASK A BUNCH OF QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT I WAS DOING BUT NEVER WOULD ANSWER WHY SHE WAS CALLING.  I HUNG UP ON HER I CALLED THE NUMBER IT SAID A PRIVIT SAFE GOVT NUMBER. I DID A SERCH ON IT SAID IT WAS A LAND LINE FROM AL. I DONT THINK IT IS NO ONE PERSON ATTACHED TO THIS NUMBER

someone has called me several times from this number and it will only say that it is from the state of alabama. I am curious to know because when I did call the number back it is an answering machine. T his happened twice on a week day and twice on sunday.

This is Troy State University  Financial Aid office.

I got the call. The message was from the Auburn University Montgomery bookstore informing me that they cannot sell me a book because I don't have any money, or something like that.

This number calls my house every night and never leaves a message.  With the other blogs saying there is a relation to colleges, could this be related to taking college entrance exams?  Anyway, they need to stop calling I am on the do not call list as well, I have no qualms taking this to a higher level.

i receive this call a lot also.  after some research online i found this name and number.  Jerome Browning, 334-242-9594 and email is jbrowning@alsde.edu

I suggest we all start calling AND emailing for every call we receive.  maybe this person will get it stopped if he gets harassed as much as we are.  the site i found this information on had it listed as a potential bidder's list on the Alabama Department of Education's website.

It's Troy University.  It was the Assistant Marketing Director returning my call.

This call was from Children's Hospital confirming an Clinic appointment.

This call comes in atleast twice a week.....

this number has been calling every couple of hours...on my PRE-PAID TRAC PHONE?????????? my husband called it back and it said it was a state number.

this number (334-242-9999) called on a saturday morning and asked for my husband. i am worried because it does say state of alabama. that makes me wonder what to say or do. i tried to call back but an answering service picks up and says that you have been contacted by a government office. please someone who has been contacted by this EXACT number let me know what is going on. i am worried to death.

Received 2 calls from this number this morning.  No message at first, however, did get a message the second time: which was a couple minutes later from Auburn University @ Montgomery in Alabama.  They left a message for my roommate, who had contacted them.  When looking at the Caller ID log, there was no number showing for Auburn University @ Montgomery.  So, I think this is some type of "middle guy" type of business that certain companies use in order to call through, etc. because when trying to get information on a student loan, my roommate was rerouted a few days ago by the servicer of his loan to another 334 area-code-number, that was supposed to be to the lender (which was Auburn University @ Montgomery)....however, the number went to Aronov Realty when the original party AUM could not be reached.  I believe Aronov runs an answering service or is a "hub" for business calls, while also a realty company.

I finally answered - its a telemarketer - told me calling from Auburn University College of Education (Alumni) wanting me to donate monthly "Gift" of $15 for scholorships for overseas teaching opportunities - wonder why they dont apply that to my loans.....

I get a call from this number about once or twice a week.  They do not leave a message and if I answer, the call ends within a couple of seconds.  I have no idea who this is.

PLEASE request this company or person to STOP calling my personal home line every single day with no left message!

I am registered on the do not call list... There is a $5,000 fine for violators correct?

My caller ID says Alabama State O. I've looked everywhere I can think of and all I get is that it is from the University of Troy in Troy, Alabama and another says it is from an ALJP potential bidders list from a government office in Montgomery, AL. I live in AL and receive this call approximately once a week. Also, Someone else called and said the answering service they got said it was for some government office.

I called this number and the answering service stated that I had dailed a government office number.

That number is Troy university

Huh? I sure got lost on that one.

I have been receiving calls from this annoying number several times a day. when answered, no one speaks so we hang up. I called number back and it was a answereing mashine which also stated it was a government number from Alabama. VERY annoying.

check your meds

They called my mother saying that they have been trying to contact my brother for a check they have been holding for him for 6 months. they also clamed they left a message on his phone which was a false statement. we called the number and the message said that it was a state number in which i knew right then there was somthing wrong because when runing a business theres a certin way you do things like leave reference numbers and give confirmation numbers which was not done. avoid this number at all cost and if any company calls you passed 5pm be carefull and give no "NO" information out.

I am very upset that some dumb a** has the time to sit in some office making these prank calls !!!! My secretary called me saying... that my doctor had called and she really needed to speak to me....when I find out who YOU are YOU will need to a doctor !!! GET A LIFE !!!

As far as I can tell, this number is simply what Alabama state government offices pop up as on caller IDs. I was expecting, and received, a call from Troy University, but it showed as this number. When I called them back, they said that they've heard that their number does that. So it seems it could be anyone affiliated with the government in the state, really.

samething happening to me but in my case they new my daughter was having heart surgery and possed as the dr.'s office asking me if I was concerned with her scheduled apt time. Which in my information sheet from this Dr out of town states to call on Dec18th the day before her surgery. They acted like the nurse stated her time to be there and asked me about fax numbers and blood work results being faxed?? I'm not the Doctor. I stated that I was told per the sheets the faxed to me on Dec 11th 2008 my instructuin in which I have done, not to call for scheduled time until the day before between the hours 2-4 pm. I reiterated that to her. I found the whole conversation weird. But my main concern is we are dealing the someone who knows about my 9 years scheduled heart surgery date that is out of town and posing as a employee of the doctors employee. Then giving me a time to be there in which after the conversation, I looked at caller id and saw that is was not even a long distant number and her heart doctor's number is a long distant number. I also was VERY concerned that they could have given me a wrong time to get her there and this little girl has been VERY sick! After the call my mother and I looked at the number at it dispalyed 334-242-9999 Alabama State of.. Dec15th @4:02pm. When we called it on speaker phone. It said her name to be a Marriyln Price, an went on to say this is a caller id number which mean this call came from a stae or govement offical with the stae of Alabama???? I then called the Dr in B-Ham to ask about htis call. they assurred me on speaker phone in front of my parent, whom were baffled too that they NEVER give the appointment time until the day before surgery when you (being me ) calls per instruction faxed to me and instructed me to do. That, This call did not come from them. I immediately called my lawyer and let him know. He did tell me if was from a land line near Jackson Hospital in Montgomery, Al where there are nothing but state Department???? I wanted him to find out more and he said that was it. I am DEEPLY CONCERNED that SOMEONE is TRYING VERY HEARD to do thing to harm my child and myself and this is one of MANY accounts that its been done???? It has been soo bad that even my cell phones  Ihave showing where I tried to call her heart doctor when things were really hard to even get her appointment that she so despartely needed before then but someone had access to my phones somehow ?? I'm no expert on technical stuff but I still have a phone where I made 4 call to her heart doctor to let them know something wasn't wright, she needed attention now and as soon as I dailed and connected to that number somehow? someone? something remotely disconnected each call?? sometime even would punch in numbers slowly so that I would hear then controlling my phone, call etc. So bad that I tookm staright to police and they investagted it. But never found out anything?? This is my child, she is nine years old and just got out of hospital 9 days straight. She is indefinently of of school until this surgery,so she doesnt catch anything else and is 2 days away from her surgery. My poor little girl has been through it and someone is still at it even though I have left my husband, filed for a divorce and living with my parents just to try a get a little peace until her surgery but it followed me here AGAIN??? Same as before when we left because og this and the pressure on her heart before I even new it was her heart? or should I say officially new. ( A mom Knows all. That why I left town and went to george for some relief but it happened there too with the people we stayed with and because of everything I was FORCED to COME back. to get MORE???????? WHY and why wont someone help us www.Godwithme63@live.com If you can help at all PLEASE tell me we are being stalked in so many other ways to.....Thank you
