Caller is California Green Energy Center located in Van Nuys, CA. Real phone number is 855-269-4661. Website is http://californiagreenenergycenter.com/
The agent, "Jimmy" was pretty ignorant, but said that they were a referral service and didn't have to abide by the "do not call" rules because they weren't actually selling. "Daniel" was his alleged supervisor (more likely the clown in the next cubicle) and he was belligerent that not only do they not have to follow the do not call guidelines, but that they do not maintain their own do not call list and that the law is invalid, "because he saw it on KTLA5 last night". Needless to say, none of that is true.
Best course of action - string them along for as long as possible without actually giving them any information. This will make the agent miss his numbers for the day. Get as much information out of them as possible and then report the call at:
https://complaints.donotcall.gov/complaint/complaintcheck.aspx
and, report the spoofed number here:
