02/29/04 at approximately 9:10 AM, while I was sleeping in this Sunday AM, my telephone rang. It was Wanda Knight, ID #0699 with ON LINE AUCTION SOLUTION. Due to fact "that I am such a good person" they are giving me $200.00 in gas tickets, and 7 full days free of a "Kit". I am to give them check # for shipping charges of $29.95 in order to recieve this wonderful "gift".
After explaining numerous times that I do not give out information over the telephone and chatting with #1, Wanda, the Sr. Verfication officer, then Supervisior, in which I was trying to find out WHO this was calling me when I am and have been since first offered on the "Do Not Call list". By this time it is 9:57 AM, and I hung up. Immediately my telephone rang again (I did not even answer), it rang like 14 times, and did this every 5 or 10 min. Until 11:25AM at which time I removed telephone from line, so I could continue watching Church without being disturbed. 12 noon I did return telephone to hook and received no more phone calls.
My question is, is it legal to do this? And if not what can we do to stop this from happening? I would appreciate any advise you can offer. Thanking you in advance.
