Got a call Saturday night - I demanded that the caller identify herself by ID number and she refused.  Got angry when I persisted and eventually hung up on me!  Before hanging up she had a man come on the call.  My advice is take control of the conversation and:  1. clearly state to them that the conversation is being recorded and when they acknowledge that then 2.  state that you are registered with the government on the Do Not Call List and that the recording will be forwarded to the government along with their ID/name.  Be persistent about asking for their ID and tell them repeatedly that you want to be taken off their call list and eventually they will hang up on you

Oops. i meant "prize"

SPT environmental research.  After pressing as to why her number doesn't show up and to be removed from her call list, she pretended to not hear me and eventually hung up.  I can't block the caller because a number - v11132300290108 shows up.  What is the point?  How do people make money off of this scam?

Got tricked! They called and I gave the info they asked for. Had ethnic accent. (woman) Called the next day and it was a very pushy man! I wasn't ready for him! I managed to book an appointment to get my "free" knives and a presentation. I tried to call back---busy signal. I finally found the business name and a reachable phone number! Breathe EZ homes, AKA (403) 214-1446. I called this number and asked them to cancel my appointment and take me off their call list. They were actually polite, probably since I was so irrate. SCAM SCAM SCAM! I wish I knew how they got my number!!

Had a survey questionnaire asking about clean air quality.  The caller (female) said she was calling from the Phillipines.  She represented the SPT Research Company for air qualiaty.  The number to call back was (403) 648-2643.  She said I may have won something for answering the questions and will notify me later.   When I called the number somebody answered who couldn't peak English and hung up on me.    I called twice.  Same thing happened.I answered her questions with vague answers.  She had no idea what the company's full name stood for - SPT when I asked her. How do I report this scam?

I just got a call from a blocked number. The caller (female) said she was with "SPT" conducting an environmental survey.I asked her what SPT stands for and she said it doesn't stand for anything.I asked her what kind of work they do and she said they conduct enviormental studies for Canadian companies.I asked her if she could give me some examples of companies that they work with and she replied, "No I can't, because we don't have any regular clients."I asked her where their headquarters were located and she said "Manila."I asked her if they have any locations in Canada and she said "no."I asked her if they do any work outside of Canada and she said "no." (Aside: yet they have no locations in Canada?)I asked her what the address of their location in Manila was, and she said, "It's in Manila, sir."I asked her if they have a website and she said "just search for SPT." I asked her if they had a URL and she said, "to be honest, sir, we do not."Honestly would have been appreciated from the start, not only after she was pressed for answers. Anyways, definite scam.
