Just got a call from Jay saying he was from the Pharmaceutical Group and he is working with clients to help them launch new products in 2015 and 2016. I asked for a number to call back and then looked up the company name, the phone number he called from and the number to call him back. This lead me to this discussion. I will not be calling Jay back and how very lame of him to deceive people to sell seminar sponsorship etc. LAME.

I just received a call from Jay (no last name given) who said he was from the ACO Group and was interested in doing a project with our company. He gave me the cell (he used the word "mobile") number (514) 268-2225. I looked up the ACO Group, and it is an existing company, but not in our industry.

Just got a call from Jay (514) 289-9700 xt 304 , very vague and nosy , got his number and called back , it is an event company that puts on meetings and seminars around the world , I think he was looking to expand his invitee list

I just got the same call from the same guy -- or at least someone using the same name (Adam Axler) -- from the same company (Brazil Property Development Group) asking for our CEO.  The guy asked who I was, my position in the firm etc and questions about our work.  I got a (514) 679-8418 from him and it's a number in Quebec, voicemail name is totally different and nothing.  Weird ...

Received a call from Jay Sharma from the "Power Plant Management Group" and he was looking to evaluate staffing companies that provide engineers for power plants. I kept him on the phone for a while playing dumb to see if I could get a phone number out of him and sure enough he gave me both his mobile (514) 268-2225) and his office number (514) 289-9700 ext. 304).I immediately called the main number and it's an office in Quebec for Marcus Evans. I entered his extension and told him who I was and that he will NOT be getting a call back. We have never worked with Marcs Evans, not do we ever intend to. He tried to ask questions that would make me seem like a stupid secretary and I told him, "Sir, it's not gonna happen."

The number is owned by a company called "Marcus Evans". It looks they also go by "The THG (The Hospitality Group)".

I received a call from someone who was very vague about the details of his company and claimed he was from ME Pharmaceuticals.  Then is became a division of ME Events later in the call.  Then he became rude when I wasn't buying.  Sorry Mathew Dance - no sale.
