They call me about 2x a week..hate 'em!

I saw the phone # on caller idea and wondered what it could be. I decided to let the answering machine pick up, but then the call disconnected, maybe because it was getting an answering machine? I am also on the DNC list. I decided to Google the phone number and that's how I found these posts.

I have been getting these calls for months, as has my next-door neighbor.

We have decided to make appointments then not answer the door if someone shows up.

I found a case in another state where the AG brought a case against a similar scam, and they settled for $10,000. I fail to see why the CA AG cannot go after these jerks.

I'm experiencing the same things everyone else is.

Got same type of call..hit "1" went to live
operator who was very wary and hung up after
I asked for phone number of "Best Carpet Care".

I keep getting these same calls as well. I pressed 1 today to talk to someone and a woman answered and said "Fast Carpets". I asked to be removed from their calling list and she hung up.

Like the other people who have posted, I receive at least 2 calls a month from "Dave" and most of the time just hang up.  Once I pressed 1 and told the woman I was on the DNC list.  She hung up.  Today I asked for the name of the company and she responded "Best Carpet."  I asked for a number so I could contact them.  She hung up.

Without a caller ID number, don't see that the feds can do much.

Like another person, I thought about making an appointment for a time when I would not be home.  Unfortunately, I suspect that the poor person who is sent out has no idea about the lousy and illegal tactic that is being used, so I am hesitant to use that strategy.

At least the 3rd call - Alison Carpet Cleaning - offering a "special offer". I pressed 1 and told them we're on no call list -and they hung up. I will report them.

It sounds like it is time to schedule an appointment and then throw a party for them when they arrive!

Anyone out there Game?

Alison with a carpet cleaning special. I've been on DNC list is was started. I get one at least once a week on my machine.

It sounds like many of you are in California- but I'm getting these calls too, and I'm in the Northeast!  

I don't have caller ID.

I get these calls about once a week- used to be Dave, now it's Allison.

I hang up long before the whole message plays - thinking maybe the scam is to keep me on the phone long enough to tap into my line- so I would later get billed for calls others made.

I picked up this call to see who it was because I was receiving a lot of "unknown name" calls.  I listened to the carpet cleaning message and pressed '1' to schedule an appointment.  A man came on and I asked him what company he was calling from.  He answered Best Carpets.  I asked where he was located.  He didn't answer but asked if I wanted to schedule a cleaning.  I told him I did, but I needed to know where he was located.  At that point he hung up.

Take action against these jerks now.  The next time they call SCHEDULE A CLEANING FOR A NON-EXISTENT ADDRESS.

I just set up an appointment to do six rooms of carpet for the low price of $150.  I may have got the address wrong.  Oh well.

got a call on my cell phone today from "dave."  I pressed one to give them a piece of my mind and as soon as I started ranting they hung up.  If they call again, i will try again. maybe schedule a service and then give them the whole nine when they show up.  I don't even have carpet, my whole house is laminate.

Dave's Carpet Cleaning - press 1 to talk to some skank who hangs up as soon as you mention donotcall list. I'm considering buying an airhorn to sort these f***ers out.
