I just received a phone call from this number and they hung up. When I called back I got Asset Acceptance. They are a collection company. They were looking for someone that I had never heard of. When I told them that they said they would take my number out of their system. As for the calling and hanging up, my guess is that they are on a predictive dialer, which allows call centers to maintain high activity levels by "predicting" when to have the computer time a call so that one of their representatives will be available to talk to you. This way, the phone rep goes from one call to another throughout their shift. I thought that this was against the "DO NOT CALL" telemarketing laws, but maybe there is a loophole or something.
