I just received this call on my new cell phone number....I was in a meeting, so didn't answer the call and no message left. Hope their calls don't continue, given what people are saying here about the callers.

Called my cell phone. I got to it just as it stopped ringing so I called back. It went to a busy signal. They didn't leave a message

Apparently, this organization raises funds to support various environmental concerns. Thing is, they call without leaving message every time and that is really annoying.

Could be a Facebook-related call. I made a mistake of posting my mobile number there.

I answered the call and all I got was a recorded message saying "this is a promotional phone number, press 1 then please enter your 10-digit number to be removed from the list".

I did and now I'm hoping never to get a call from this number again.

I got a $2 charge on my account for merchant - SBA Connections. All I remember is that I purchase some items online and that's probably where these scumbags got my account details.

Automated call, said press 1 to learn more and nothing happened. Googled the number and found out more about its bad reputation.

Calls on my cell phone. Caller ID says it's from Salinas, CA. I don't know anyone from that location so I'm guessing this is just another telemarketing call.

I do not know if this is a legitimate company because I just received a phone call from them and they want to sell my timeshare. I have to research further.

Called regarding "my education". I am definitely not calling the number back. It's creepy and fishy at the same time.

Number shows CALIFORNIA PAL but never answers when I pick up. Why waste such a lot of time calling when you have nothing to say?

Called to inform me I won a 2-night cruise. I said "Wow! What's the catch?" Caller said it's absolutely free but he needs to get my credit card details. No way. I just hang up.

A caller with a foreign accent woke me up at 7am just to "verify" something with my credit card. I told her to call back later. After just a couple of minutes, this number was calling again! Incredible! These telemarketers don't stop annoying BUSY people with REAL jobs.

I received several calls from this number. I ignored the calls because there were no messages left. When I notice that the calls became more frequent, I called the number back. Turned out to be Patient Financial Services collecting some medical bill. I told them it would have been much better if they just send me a paper statement so that it could've been taken cared of right away.

It says press 1 to receive promotional gift. I pressed 1 just for kicks then I got the same "press 1 message". After 5 seconds, it got disconnected. Great!

No phone call was received. What I got is a yellow postcard that "bears the good news" and that I need to call this number back to hear it.

The "sad news" is it is a scam. I called the number back and the lady on the phone insisted that I'm already one of their customers and that I'm being given a gas card and all I have to do is pay the shipping of $1.99 over the phone! How easy! I told her she was lying b**** and hung up.

Called to solicit for local HS sports. I said I'll just drop my donation at their office so I asked for their address but she wouldn't give it. Very suspicious.
