Maybe it was for fraud.  We received a call from this number at our farm and they wanted to have information about our finances.  I say that my husband don't answer to questions about his finances to anybody, but she insisted to call back to speak to the owner.  After the lady hang up, i look and the number was supposed to be in Massachussets, USA, but i called with Skype and a message from the operator say that the number no longer exist.
