This number has called me a billion and one times over the last few months and if you listen to the recording, it gives you the option to opt out of them call you anymore, but they keep calling. I have pressed the button to speak with someone if you are interested in receiving funding from them and when I talk to someone and ask that they remove me because I am tired of the phone calls, the guy hangs up on me. I called the number back several times and it's usually busy, but I got through today and was transferred a bunch of times, but I finally got the name of the company - CAPITAL ADVANCE SOLUTIONS. If you try to talk to someone, you get stuck with voicemails, but if you google the website you come up with this one: http://capitaladvancesolutions.com/contact-us/ . Their contact number is
#1 866 293 5365. You can call them and get right through. I even got to talk to the same a***ole that keeps hanging up on me. I politely asked him if he would remove my number once again and he said he would and repeated the number back to me. I don't know if it will work but I am keeping my fingers crossed that the calls will stop, at least for a while. Hope this helps everyone!

I have received 12 phone calls from this company.  The pre-recorded message starts off by saying " this is a second attemp to contactact you"  I have even spoken to someone there to have my phone number removed from there list and I still get more calls.

funding scam

merchant funding (908) 271-2098 just called me.. didn't pick it up

repeatedly getting recorded messages from this company...

Beware of advance-fee loan scam http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/telemarketing/tel16.shtm

This call comes up on the caller ID from a company called Merchant Funding. It is a pre-recorded message about how they can help you receive funding for your business. I usually hang up about now, but have been told by others who answer the phone that they give a phone number for you to call back to have them help you. They take the easy way out by you not being able to tell them not to call.

Telemarketer called me, too.
