The Newspaper Education Program uses this phone #. They solicit funds for an organization they say helps with classroom costs.

I let it roll to voice mail. No message left.

This number just called here again; clearly we're still on some stupid list. Luckily, I keep an IGNORE List right by my office phone. This was shunted straight to voicemail.

Update: Same woman with a New England accent called again. It's so weird when they say the boss's name soooo carefully; they're clearly reading it. "Hi, I need to speak to ...Ro-o-ober-r-rt ...Cun-n-ning-g-gha-a-am".

Uh, yeah. Let me put you RIGHT through. Pffft.

I do not appreciate receiving phone calls from this number 1-888-412-7121!!! I do not do business with phone number .  It's identity is FREE CALL..  This kind of harassment must stop!!

Caller asks for owner by first name, but of course declines to leave a message. "That's okay, I'll try back."

Calls from this number morning, noon and night. Some newspapers for education scam.
I asked to be taken off their list but NO, the calls continue.  I than kept the agent on the phone for
several minutes asking her if she knew how much money has been spent on Head Start? Than how much of my tax money goes to education? She hung up on me.

we have been getting this call at the office for years now for the literacy program, I think always from the same "Mary"--we contacted our local newspaper office and they confirmed that the caller was an outsourced telemarketer for Newspapers in Education (or something(?). Even if this is true, we decline to donate to cold callers because of all the scams that can happen--however, apparently before I started at some point, there WAS a donation made, because she always reads a script of "because of your generous support in the past, blah blah." After many many many times of politely declining, this number starts ringing every few months like clockwork. She won't take a hint, even when we've asked to be taken off the calling list. I just don't answer it anymore. The script gets left on the voicemail anyway.

Why do these people keep calling and hanging up? Are they trying to see who or when the phone gets answered? They can't sell us anything when they hang up. It just wastes our time and money.

I just got a call from this number and all it was, was someone breathing heavily. Very strange.

One ring and no one on the line.

this caller asked for a person by name. but do not who they are

SCAM!

I received a phone call but did not answer because I did not recall the number.  They left no message.

This number keeps calling every evening and leaves no message and there is never anyone on the line.

constant unsolicited calls from this number- we are on the do not call list

They called on 09/21/2010 at 11:50.  No person on the line.  Probably another scam.

888-412-7121 keeps calling, leaves no message.

these people are scammers

Caller identified them self as a solicitor for the Tennessean.  Gave a value of the remainder value of current newspaper subscription. Then asked to donate $25 of it to a literacy program.  Subsequent call to the Tennessean determined there is no such campaign occurring.
