recieved several calls from this # .different times.always someone with heavy accent offering medical equipments for free if i was medicare patient,then transfers the call to some one else who stress the same idea and then transfers the call to another one  who asks for the social security #!!!
i hope someone from this office will have the courage one day to blow the whistle and force those who know but don"t care to take an action to stop this scam
forgot to say same # used for different reasons like solving credit cards issues-even if there isn"t any

This dude has harrassed me over 24hrs straight on texting my phone trying to buy my car I'm saleing..  he's already sent me a fake fraud check

Same two calls. I make the contact name "ignore" so when they call again, I will know not to answer.

I was just woke u at 6:10 in the damn morning by these guys.  

The first two calls (at 8 & 6:15) I didnt answer.  But I tried to do a revere look up on hte number to figure out who it was and theres no record of the number or its a VoIP number.  

They called again at 6:45 so I decided to answer by saying "Detroit Police Computer Crimes Division, This is Detective Smith can I help you?"

and amazingly they hung up!

I received 8... That's right 8 calls in a 5 hour period from this number...to hell with the do not call list, I'm wanting to make a drive to Virginia to permanently disconnect THEIR land line...this is getting ridiculous...and now, as I type these very words on my iPad...yet again another call...make that 9 times in 5.5 hours.

They called and asked for my husband. When asked who was calling they hesitated and then gave a name that sounded made up with a company called Credix. Told them to leave a message and they hung up.

It's a company called Credix, they help companies get funding.

OOPS MAKE THAT SAVE NOT SAME

I SAME THESE TO A CONTACT NAME LIKE ZSPAM1 ZSPAM2 ETC - WHEN I GET ONE OF THESE TYPES OF CALLS I THEN SAVE THEM TO A NUMBER ON THAT NAME. MY ZSPAMx ARE ALL SET FOR SILENT RINGTONES SO I DONT EVEN KNOW THEY ARE CALLING

I also heard cartoons in the background when I received a call 15 minutes ago. I answered the phone with "Hello", and a woman on the other end also said "Hello?" multiple times before hanging up. I'm not going to start the conversation for you, crazy lady.

I have received 5 calls from 571-963-3218 since 10:36 am this morning and Im getting sick of it !! They are intrusive and interrupt my work. I answered two of these calls only to hear some b.s music. Why are people allowed to do this in America? Is everything here about money these days? I tried calling them back but kept getting a recording telling me the number is no longer in service.
The telephone companies should be held responsible because they are the ones providing the service and if anyone can find out where these calls are coming from its them!

They called 3 times this morning. When I finally did answer my phone started ringing through? When the line was picked up I heard cartoons in the background and no answer. Strange...

lizzie, you are a pig. Do you really think anyone on here knows why they call you? Grow the f*** up..

DO you actually know of a way to do this?  It's a great idea...I got FIVE calls from these a***s today. FIVE calls within 1 hour, 20 minutes!!  I NEVER answer these calls. I'm fortunate that we have a very small company so the phones stay forwarded to my cell 24/7 which allows me to ignore these calls, which is what I do. I am now up to over 175 numbers blocked in my phone.  I have an app that lets me block the calls. It's great, it's called Blacklist (I have an iPhone but I'm sure there's stuff for android too).  Our phone number is for scammers since that's who calls. If it's a legit call the caller leaves a message.  Anyone that needs us calls each of us on our mobile phones. Wish we could get rid of our office number.

One of these days this is going to happen.....   Someones going to get sick and damn tired of these people calling good ol' folks during morning or work hours for scams, and more or less just obnoxious telemarketer bs..  And ask someone that can find out where the calls are coming from.  Go to there door or apartment area and watch them come and go out of there place of living or where they host this nonsense. The when the time is right,   OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOYEAAAAAAAAAAAAH  Its face smashing time!!!! SMACK BANG BOOOOOOM to the damn moon with them!

I have received 6 calls today from this number. Each time nobody answers me. If I try to call it back, i get "your call can not be accepted at this time". At first I got excited that it could of been a lost family member from VA trying to reach out. Only to be a disappointment of some jerk with nothing better to do.

This person called and asked for the owner, that he was calling about information for loans or something to that effect.  I told him nicely that I was not interested and thanked him for calling.  Well now he has called my office 4 times, he does not say anything, just an eerie silence.

Unwanted call 3 times today. Never spoke to them and they never left a message. Also, you cannot call back to identify them.

4 calls from this #. Called back no such #

4 calls from this # this morning. called back no such #

I called their main number 877-462-7489 and the woman said they were calling on behalf of another company and to call bonnie murphy at 636-827-1995 and give bonnie the number they called me on and she would be able to tell me which company was requesting my information. she said it could be a survey from a company looking to get my feedback or it could be another company just wanting to verify my information. I'm pretty sure I had it right and it was a debt collector using these people to try and get my info.

Here is their main phone number (877) 4-Maritz (877-462-7489)

http://www.maritzresearch.com/
this is their website

the company is called maritz research. I did a little research myself and someone else said they were affiliated with bank of america. i have credit card debt with bank of america so they are probably trying to find out if i have money or to get information from me. they are out of woodbridge, virginia. when you call the number back it says it is disconnected. he said he was a financial adviser. don't give them any info!

Just got a call from this number 571-963-3218 and he asked for me by name. I asked who was calling and he said he was from "Critics", at least that's what it sounded like. He said he was a financial adviser. lol. I have credit card debt and am currently being sued by one of the debt collectors and it was probably them trying to find out if I had money before we go to court. Ha ha. I don't give out personal information over the phone to anyone, especially someone I don't know and I will not verify anything, even if they have the info. When I called back the number said it was disconnected.

Keeps calling and either hangs up on the third ring or like today they ask for the owner of the business and then hang up...crack pot?

Hung up after 3 rings

Caller ID says "Name not found". RED FLAG #1. Background noise of a call center. RED FLAG #2. They only wanted to talk to the owner and did not want to leave a message. RED FLAG #3 Strikes and they're out. As long as I pick up the phone, they will never get to talk to the owner LOL!!!
