Choicepoint, background checks for LLNL among other data services.

This is actually a legitimate number -- they called me with questions about my very real background check for my job.  They are a very legitimate company, used, in this case, by the Department of Energy.

Got a call from the same number, googled it, got me here.  Message they left on my phone said they were doing a background check on a guy I used to work with.  Wanted to verify past employment.

beeps repeatedly, calls all day long.  also calls our CA home number in early morning hours.
