David McGroarty called our company pushing for someone to sign-up for the "Emerging Payments" Conference in San Diego.  Would not take "no".

IQPC is a legitimate organization -- International Quality and Productivity Center. They put on conferences. My company deals with them for the Call Center Week show in Vegas.

Here's the show that he was calling about: http://www.iqpcevents.com/ShowEvent.aspx?id=57628&details=79190

They're annoying -- especially in the days leading up to a show -- but still legit.

I actually answered a call 2/14/08 from 416-597-4703 then I googled it and found your comment.  He said he was looking for my VP and wanted to invite him to a "Customer Complaints Management Conference" and wanted my VPs email.  I didn't give it to him.  His name was Kevin and he said he is with IQPC. Which is what I don't know, would not give me an url.  Wanted the VP.  I did give him a secondary email i have "just for this sort" of call.  
Hmmm, guess I will find out when I get the email.  Also when I gave him the email addy he asked if it was my last name, so i gather he will try to send something directly to VP.

Call and left no message.  Called back and Kevin Morris answered.
