Had a message on my recorder. Telling me how there are post office jobs, available, and also government and state jobs too. They repeated the 976-4477 number about 5 times, and how it is the job finder. Yeah right a job finder with a prefix of 976. Just what kind of "job" could this be???

Got a call from 718 332 3861. Did not answer. It was a recorded message from the "Job Line." I am also on do-not-call lists. They should not be calling me.
| jm 2011-06-06 20:56:51 Unknown |
again a recording saying to call (773) 976-4477. i am sure that this is a line where they receive large amounts per minute. can't we do anything about this?

Just had a call like this to call the "Job Line" at 976-4477. The caller ID is from New York. I reported it to the Do Not Call registry, since my phone # is registered with them. Next step I can think of would be NY Attorney General since it is crossing state lines - calling Chicago from NY...

I received a phone call from 718-934-0513 with this same annoying message to call 976-4477 to get government jobs it didn't even include an area code. How can I report this nuisance and block the number.
| Tracy Garcia 2010-08-26 21:20:14 Telemarketer |
This is phone harrassment
| Krystal E Miller 2010-04-24 20:11:10 Unknown |

Plz how do I get any web site for bulk sms, any idea.
| Morgan Park Academy 2010-02-22 19:43:10 Unknown |
Keeps calling at least 4 to 5 times a day. We are a school and we do not know how to get this call from not calling us daily.
Does anyone know what we should do to take care of this.
| Ms. Lucky 2009-11-25 21:50:16 Unknown |
I just recieved that same call on my work phone. Never called it back because anything with 976 is a huge charge.

Don?t know whether this is coincidence or not, but started getting these same obnoxious calls after visiting a job site to give a referral for a friend. The web site was permanenthirecareers.com and the phone call is from 718 332 2983 (on the caller ID) telling me over and over to CALL THE JOBLINE 976-4477.
Anyone else get this phone call after visiting this web site?

Received a call urging me to call 976-4477 Jobline (did not mention the area code) ~ said the post office was hiring. I did not call the number and I do not have called ID.

Unsolicited call as well. Caller ID showed as 718-442-0684. It is a shame that unemployed people are being targeted for scams.

Got an annoying, insistent call from a recorded New Jersey-sounding gruff male voice urging me, or anyone with a pulse to call the Jobline.

received a call this week from 777 976 4477, which irked me, since I am on All do not call lists I have ever seen published.
I was going to call back and complian, but the 900 number put me off,
although I had thought 900 numbers Began with 900 as in 800 number. Just
in case, I went to the computer for a clue instead.
Thank you for posting these alerts. -- CE

Same recorded message---at my work phone. Odd thing is, just last night I provided my work number to a software site (in California). I had to enter it to view their demo. Maybe a coincidence.

I am receiving calls from Silverleaf Resorts every thirty minuets from 8:am until 8:pm. on my cell phone. I am not nor have I ever been affilliated with this company. I never received 'any' calls from advertisements until I registered with the do not call line. Now I receive at least two a day on top of the calls from Silverleaf Resorts.

It takes no longer than a couple of minutes. Plus, if these scumbags should ever be prosecuted, there's plenty of documentation to bury them

My call came from 732-264-4268 stating to call 976-4477 for jobs. It repeated the number 3 times. This is the same method pressure marketing and tactics use to get it to stick in your head. Chances are if they repeat the number about 3 times, it's spam and useless.
