Guy saying he is George Carver.  Hes interested in an item I have for sale on CL. Its a solicitation call for me to pay him to sell my item.  Yeah, right!  Blocked Caller!

said was joe harbarger? wants call back-not

Joe is a nice guy, but I am listing my equipment for free or for 20 bucks a month and Ebay is free for me to list, so sorry Joe!  I don't need ya!  Maybe if someone is a in a hurry to sell, this guy could help, but he is not a buyer who is calling to buy your stuff and that is what I am sure most people think that he is at first.

Message on my answering machine from guy who says he is Joe Her**berger. I am sure it was an unsolicited call about a vehicle I have for sale, and tried to make it sound like he was eager to do business with me. Maybe he was, but I am NOT. Joe...go away!

I listed my airplane a couple of days ago and presto, Joe calls me too.  Nice try Joe, got your call yesterday and won?t be calling you back.  Thanks for the comments about this number.

Yeah, right.  Like you make a large profit selling stuff.  Methinks this is Joe himself.

Really, anyone answering my add with an 800, 877, or any other toll free number is a POACHER.  If I wanted to advertise with your company, gee, my ad would BE IN IT.

This Joe Harshbarger guy doesn't give up! Gotta give him an A for effort! No doubt a boiler room op where they get listings for fees, do not appreciate the misleading impression of being an interested buyer. At least this time he pronounced the aircraft model correctly.

Same story here. "Joe Harshbarger" called about an item we've listed for sale on a legitimate on-line site. I told him the seller wasn't available at the moment; could we return his call? He gave me the number everybody's talking about here, and said he was in Omaha. I asked if this was a "daytime" number and he said "yes, from 8 to 4 on weekdays." When the seller called him back the next day, an answering machine picked up. I'm glad I checked out the number.

Yep, Joe Harshbarger called me as well from this number, I just listed an airplane, already with my advertisers and a listing broker... makes it sound like an interested buyer, he didn't even pronounce the aircraft name correctly.... game over, thanks for playing! ;o)

Your SSN you dip. You have no clue? Your s.s.n.????????Seriously!!!!!

Scam - scam - scam they ask for your ssn without knowing who you are.

I got the same call/voicemail on a piece of equipment I put on Craigslist. Glad I googled the number.

Joe called and left me a message about a piece of equipment I have listed online with a reputable sales group that I have done business with for over 4 years and bought and sold over $100K. I returned his call four times within the last 24 hours and same message...got suspicious and went to 'Google' the number...sure enough I too am now less than a 'Fan of Joe'!

Left a message on my machine, said it was Joe, and to call him regarding an item we have for sale. I called and left a mesage back, told him to keep his call count up and not waste his time every three months. They have called us alot, as we have lots to sell when your leaving the state. However, I will not spend money EVER in an ad that does not sell, especially as they want close to $300 bucks. All you folks are smart to Google the number. Your items will sell in good time. Everything happens for a reason, and when it does it will be the right time! It works that way! Good luck!

Have a car listed on CL. Same as other people said here. I block this number.

Got a call from this number asking about a vehicle I have for sale.  I figure it's another solicitor as I have gotten quite a few of these calls.

Caller left message inquiring about my car listing. Called back & got answering machine.

This guy Joe called and left a message on my cell. Felt it was strange as we had not advertized our RV for a few months now and when it was advertized it had my husbands name on the sign and advertizement. As it is registered in his name only I was reserved on calling the number back. Thanks to this I will not be returning his call.

Joe just left me a message regarding a trailer I have advertised. I was second guessing the 877 number, thanks to this site I definitely will not call back.

Yep, they are out there. You folks are smart to google the number. It is a BOILER Operation. (numbers game) save your 300 bucks, your items will sell in good time. We get calls every three months, we have lots to sell when your moving out of State. DO NO give them any financial info or credit card numbers, not worth it! Be careful and good luck!

same as list call...

same jerk called me and left a voice message 7/16/09

JOE WAS MY ACCOUNT REP. FOR GETTING MY PETERBILT SOLD IN 16 DAYS FOR A VERY REASONABLE LISTING FEE,  SPECIALTY NETWORK IS THE COMPANY THAT WAS ON THE BALL , NOT ONE PROBLEM AT ALL ? I CANT WAIT TO GET SOME MORE INVENTORY!!

JOE CALLED US AND LEFT US A MESSAGE ABOUT AN RV WE HAVE ADVERTISED. CALLED BACK GOT THEIR VOICE MAIL / ANSWERING MACHINE. PRETTY SURE THIS IS RV TRADER TRYING TO SOLICIT US TO ADVERTISE OUR RV IN THEIR PUBLICATION. THEY ARE PRETTY MISLEADING AS THEY CALL ACTING LIKE THEY ARE A BUYER FOR MOTORHOME WHEN THEY ARE IN FACT JUST TRYING TO SELL YOU A CHANCE TO PLACE AN AD WITH THEM. VERY VERY UNDERHANDED. A WHILE BACK THEY DID THE SAME THING TRYING TO GET US TO LIST OUR RV IN THEIR PUBLICATION FOR A HIGH LISTING FEE.

caller left message and inquired about an RV we had for sale 6 months prior.  Called back to tell them the RV was sold a long time ago, had to leave a message.
