I hung up on the call because it was a recording and I couldn't understand what was being said.

Got the same message about having entered in the last 12-18mos to win a car. Message was from a Shawn Wilson 773-891-5567. Pretty elaborate message about not being a cold call, knowing about the do not call list and that this was his "last" attempt to contact me........if only I could be so lucky. Pretty much knew this was a scam but googled on the off chance. I am glad this web-site came up.

I got the same call but different guy and different number. Same message...someone entered my name for a contest and won one of 4 cars...ended by saying that it was not a telemarketing call.. It was from COMM Group MITC. But his name was Patrick. The number was773-891-5581.

Just got this same call (6/14/2010). Quick message saying we won a prize from a contest we entered in the last 18 months. Said he wasn't a tellamarketer and said he knew we were on the no caller list so it is not a scam. Then gave a number quickly to call and his name was Patrick. Glad I checked here first.

"Patrick", same old thing about a prize, call back 877-279-3457 extension 243."Group Mitchell" on caller id.

| john 2010-05-13 15:50:42 Unknown |
I received same message.I have never entered any "contest".This must be a scam.
| anon 2010-05-10 22:58:23 Unknown |
Just received a call from "Patrick", but apart from the name-change, everything he said was the same as the posts all the way back from 2008. How do these "businesses" stay around for so long?

Got this same message today, I deleted it before he even finished but my husband said maybe we had actually won something. Silly boy. So I looked it up for proof. Good website. Thanks
The Number that called me was: 773-288-8174

Received same message as others, Caller said his name was Patrick, but the voice sounded very much like a woman.
| Betty 2010-04-21 00:21:41 Unknown |
I got the same call just a minute ago. This needs to be stopped.
| JR 2010-02-26 17:39:17 Unknown |

| Jerry 2010-02-22 23:55:58 Unknown |

| Char 2010-02-20 20:10:20 Unknown |

Same call as above on my answering machine when I returned home. Caller was a tony and the return phone number to call was 877 279 3457 ext 109 My caller ID picked up his number as 773 288 8207 from Illinois.
| sunshine 2010-02-15 22:58:10 Unknown |
Strange. My phone rang and I picked up on the 4th ring after debating whether to answer as the caller id showed COMM GROUP MITC. After a pause, a quiet male voice said "I have the wrong number, so sorry". Then click, they hung up. Maybe they could tell I was in no mood for BS?
| kk 2010-02-01 16:29:12 Unknown |
Tony called us with the same message as well
its feb 2010,
why hasnt this been stopped by now !!!
| grammy 2010-01-18 19:07:36 Unknown |
Got this call from Tony who said someone entered my name and I had won one of the top four prizes one of which was a new car. Did not call back this person. They left the message on my answering machine
| Rayna 2010-01-17 02:13:18 Unknown |
I recieved the EXACT message today, from Tony as well saying its not a cold call its because I entered a contest in the last 12-18 mo and won a new car
| swss 2010-01-15 20:12:34 Unknown |
first silence...then a male voice (recording) muttering something quietly like "This is a place holder for your message. You have to record over this place holder." Then click and silence. Calling back gets a rapid busy signal.
| Char 2009-12-17 10:18:21 Unknown |
Last night received a baloney call stating someone from my phone number entered a contest and won a car. He remarked this was not a telemarketer call and quickly gave a call back number that I could not understand.
| Mike 2009-12-16 18:21:17 Unknown |
The e-mail address site to report them is uce@ftc.gov
| Mike 2009-12-16 18:06:30 Unknown |
I got the same call from the Mitchell Group today.
I am reporting them to the FTC.
| DeeGee 2009-11-22 20:19:52 Unknown |
Caller ID showed Mitchell Group.773-288-8207. Msg was practicall ditto to the MeToo comments above. I noticed their call was Oct 28, 2008. This is a year later and these scammers are still interrupting our Sunday afternoons?
I didn't even waste my time in calling back to their #. Too many times it's a way for them to gain added leverage. Interesting side note is that 4 hours prior to this one came another caller with blocked ID wanting $$$$ donation to fight breast cancer...RIGHT...possibly connected callers? We had responded by answering that one...hmmm.
| Cindy 2009-10-30 18:32:02 Unknown |
Received a call from this phone number at 9am today (10/30) Caller said his name was William and that I was one of the top prize winners in a contest. He said he was not a telemarketer and also said there was no way they could have my phone number without me giving it to them. BALONEY!! These groups sell phone numbers to each other all the time. And besides, he was calling my home phone number which I don't give out. If I ever fill out any kind of contest entries, I always give my cell #. This just wreaks of a scam!! Don't be fooled people.
| nc 2009-10-16 01:20:15 Unknown |
this SCAM continues...same caller Tony same message I have reported it to the FCC and BBB
| Anthony 2009-08-22 22:09:20 Unknown |
I received a call today from this person to record over this message or someting like that anyway this needs to stop Im going to report this number to the do not call list as my number is on the list.
| PJ 2009-08-07 19:04:19 Unknown |
not too bright. the msg said something to the effect, this is a place holder for your message. You have to record over this place holder.
