For the past few weeks we have been receiving phone calls from an Eva with Globalreach International; she claims to be an employee of Google. She called asking for our Site Manager. When asked what the nature of the call was she simply said she would call back and hung up. Yesterday she called and I again asked again "What is the nature of this call?" She stated again that she was with Google and was responding to an inquiry we had made for working from home. This gave me more information to work with. I already knew, full well, that no such inquiry was ever made by myself of the manager online or via any other form of communication. I then asked to take a message; I was again told that she was going to call back. Later in the day, she called back, I told her the manger wasn't in and if this was some form of solicitation call we didn't want her to call back. It must have been the end of Eva's shift because she didn't call back again until this morning. I put her on hold/ignore for about 5 minutes and went over what this Eva was telling the manager. When I went back to the call I told Eva we didn't want liars and scam artists calling the business any longer and if it persisted we would be filing complaints. About 20 minutes later Eva had a gentleman with the same claim he was with google call us. I told him the same thing, he then hung up on me. I was curious about this so I called Google and they were unaware that this company was using their name to harrass business and private citizens they were only aware of the ridiculous emails. We are located in Florida, so it seems they have pulled a new phonebook off the shelf; I noticed that they have already struck in Las Vegas and New Hampshire. I've been through this sort of ordeal before. To stop them we have to find out what states they are licensed in and complain to the state's attorney for each state. I have already completed this process in our great sunshine state of Florida, I encourage others to do the same.
