Telemarketer/Company Name: Unknown
Telemarketer/Company Number: 972-307-8319
The Story: Today we received a call from the above number. The caller asked for the owner of our company by name. The owner of our company is retired and his name is the Company Name as well, so it isn't hard to guess the owner's name. When told the owner was not here he asked for the "person that runs the business" I was polite and asked for what purpose so that I might direct the call. (we have to make sure we aren't disregarding legit calls.) he proceeded to call me by many derrogatory names and using very inappropriate language. I recorded the number before the caller could hang up. We have attempted to call the number back only to get a busy signal. my company is currently persuing a report from www.ussearch.com for the information attached to this number.
