It seems like maybe this has to do with people who get new phone numbers?  Someone else said they just got a new number the other day and then received the call.  I just got my new number about 2 weeks ago, and received a call from this number last night....

?

Wanting to send Magazines, told them i'm not interested, they said "ok" and hung up.

Pest!!

These people have called my phone at least 8 times a day for 5 days now!  I've requested repeatedly to have my number removed and they keep calling back!

they have been calling me non stop for the last few days. i tried calling back but the line was busy...how do i make it stop????

Hi i got a call from this number, all i had to do was ask to be put on their do not call list and have not recieved any calls from them again.

Signed up with Cavalier Telephone, got a number I've never had before and had therefore disclosed to no one -- and within 48 hours this number was calling me. Hmm. Wonder if Cavalier sold it to them...

Have been receiving calls from this number for about 3 days now. The caller lets the phone ring (my cell phone) 3 times hangs up then calls right back and does this for about an hour.

This number has become something of a burden they call but when I answer they hang up which disturbs me alot

please stop calling me and then hang up

Call came on my cell phone...don't know who it is...when they called back..I took a loud sports whistle and I'm sure hurt their ears...if they call back again, I'm going to sue for harrassment and cause them some financial distress.

Got a call from that number also yesterday.

NOTHNG IS FREE!!!!

These phone calls started for me when I forgot the principal axiom of economics: "There is no such thing as a free lunch."
The reason most all of us have gotten the phonecalls from this number and others is because of the websites like freelaptopnation.com
I say we fight back and use a website like mapoftheinternet.com, look up the websites that require sign up for info and give their phone number to themselves to call all day.
here is one of the companies:

to use the mapoftheinternet service type the name of the site in the domain spot and then click on who is to get registrant info. sometimes this is blocked so try google too.
Good luck to  all.

I need to know who this is

Well i  just recently recieved a phone call from this number. They called twice, when I picked up the second time, he called me by my first name and told me his name was mark and he was calling from a magazine serivce. Then he hung up.....I hope he dosen;t call again...

Viking Magazines calls at least once a day. I just got a new number. I will be taking appropriate action against this jerks. Hope they are reading. Their days are numbered. They screwed with the wrong lawyer.

They call me at least 3 times a day. I never answer but I am getting very frustrated, they first call from the 515 number, but then they block it and call again! I just got a new refurbished phone from Cingular and thats when I began receiving the calls.. I think someone cingular gave out my number or something. I tried calling cingular to see if they can block them and they said it wasn't possible, I don't know how to make them stop!

We just got a new number with Armstrong who professes not to sell phone numbers. I have been inundated in the last two days with telemarketing calls. It started with multiple calls from 1-800-830-9718. When I requested to be put on the "do not call" list, "Emily" told me that she had to make a living and would not take us off! This number tracks on the message boards to both Viking Magazines and IR Sweepstatkes. I hypothesize that they are also affiliated with "Family Reader" as both Viking and Family Reader have called me within the hour.

Viking Magazine....515-369-5701
They called and left message with my daughter saying that my husband or myself should give them a call back, it was very important. I called back and just got a busy signal all day long. Then, when i finally reached someone, I asked them how they obtained my phone number since i am on the national do not call list...the line went dead. lol. I never ordered anything from them...nor did I ever even hear of them until they called me. Haven't heard from them since.

When I answered the phone, all I heard was someone breathing on the other end.  So I hung up.

Quite Annoying At 7:12 am  =[

Do not want any magazines or any other bothers

i just got my number and i am allready geting calls from telemarketers. i have only given my number to only family how did these people get it.

i am on do not call list, alot of good that does!!and they still call how do i stop them?? i answered the call and they hung up!

I want this absolute nonsense to stop. Don't these idiots realize that I pay for every single one of the calls they make to me? I would really like to find someone in charge of the place, and explain the concept of harrassment in simple language.

This month I just go my new number with t-mobile on the 1st a couple days after that i started receiving call from this stupid number.  These jerks call me daily so I decided to go through the procedure with them and they were selling magazines(not interested).  I pretended to be interested this lady talked about my interests while waiting for her manager and these people are of false advertisement and full of s**t because they told me that the magazines where a free subscription and I would receive all these incentives but the sup wanted me to pay a monthly fee and she asked me for my credit card information.  These people are scams they are harrasers and something needs to be done about this.  Because even after telling the b***h i dont want the s**t these mother f***ers still call me.

2 CALLS FROM THIS COMPANY WITHIN MINUTES JUST HUNG UP ON EACH CALL

Ok here is the weird thing, I just got my first land line in my life, nobody knows it, I don't even know it, only reason I got it was a bundled discount package from TIME WARNER, just like the person above mentioned, this must be associated with time warner or their associates. Nobody but them knew my number, and the second they after its hooked up they started calling. nobody speaks, and according to the internet posts this is going on for a while.WHY SOMEBODY CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT? Maybe we should call cops in IOWA. he must be a some kind of freak that gets pleasure doing this.HEEEEEELPPPP!!!

I too was callled by this number, (new LAN line) all you have to do is register you home or cell phone number with the "Do Not Call" Registry, and the pretty much hang up on you before you can finish your statement.  Call 888-382-1222.

what really sucks is when people get this call and immediately call back using their phone's automatic callback... But a lot of phones forget to put the 1 in front of the area code and call my number since my number is the first 7 digits of viking mag. number including the area code... So if you get called, please make sure you are dialing back the correct number before threatening the person on the phone.

Luckily I am moving soon so my number will change... haha probably get spammed by tviking mag, ;P
