I got calls similar to these experienced by others, but I have not checked the origin of the call.I could not believe there are people like this out there, and the extend to which they would go to pull a scam like this.I got a follow-up call from the same outfit today. The lady spoke in perfect english without any accent so I suspect the call came from a local location. The lady sounded really nice at first, and said to have some great news since my name has been entered into a draw for $25,000 cash prize. In addition, I have been chosen to receive some fabulous daily give aways. Before I had a chance to turn it down, she went on to describe 3 fabulous gifts ... a slap-chop set, some electronic stuff, and etc. I patiently waited for her to stop talking and finally she asked " so which one will it be?". I politely said to her that I would like to pass.At this point, I guess she realized that she has blown her cover ... and that I knew she is involved in a scam. That's when her tone took a turn and one could actually feel the coldness in her voice/tone.She pressed me to tell her my address so I could receive the fabulous prizes. I insisted that I am not interested in those "prizes".She then hang up abruptly ...

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!!

Same thing happened to me this eve. The man with an accent I couldn't recognize zoomed through a series of questions:Do I smoke, if I was married, where I work, how long I worked there, if I recycle, my first name etc.When I insisted he give me the name of the firm he was calling from he said he was from "SPT Demographic Research." I googled this name, but it brings up a number of different pages, so I'm not sure which it is or if it is even one of them.When I asked what the firm's phone number was, he said it was (403) 648-2643. I called this number, but it comes up as a number that doesn't exist. But the area code is an Oklahoma area code. Interesting considering I live in Canada.How do I report this scam?

The one time I respond to a survey (I'm in Winnipeg) and it turns out to be scammers! (From what others are saying.) The info on this site is useful; now I know I'll probably get a follow-up call. I only answered the phone because I was waiting for a long-distance business call and that showed up on the screen - it wasn't till I hung up that I saw the number didn't show up on my phone, just "long distance." But thought I'd finally be nice to a survey worker (it's not a fun job; I've done it) and only realized something was up when it was too late: she'd said she was taking my number off the list immediately and she'd never call me for another survey, but then said I might win a prize. I started to ask her how the heck they'd contact me if I "won," since she said she's just said she was removing my number from their records right now, and she ended the call abruptly.

Have gotten a few calls about an "environmental survey." I asked for the company name, she said SPT, her name was Trixie. When I asked for the number that she's calling from she gave me my own number. I said, "that's my phone number, I would like the number YOU are calling from please. She then hung up on me.
