SPT Research -- or whoever they are -- called me several times between yesterday and today. They're aggressive and won't take NO for an answer. They'll hang up and call you right back. I'm annoyed and want to know how to stop these people. Apparently, when it comes to telemarketers, the CRTC's responsibilities end at our borders.

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?

Had 2 calls now from this company, SPT Environmental Research, Heather from (604) 998-8841.  Answered her basic questions, however, when she asked my profession i answered Prostitute, my husband is a Mercenary and kills people, although he only works part-time!  She said we sound like a hard working couple and should be proud!?!?!?  Obviously her english skills only pertain to the script she is reading!  Told her i didn't want her "prize" and please remove me from call list as i am on do not call list.  She responded that they are  a research company and not telemarketer. Another one for call-block.

I just got that one too spt or something Askin if I was  house owner had pets if was a smoker I

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 ...

I got this call today and I think this is who they arehttp://sptbusiness.com/index.html
