Evidently a collection agency for an account on which an acquaintance listed me as a reference. They call repeatedly to my home/business and when I bother to answer, goes to voice mail and won't let me disconnect - ties up my line for several minutes. Called back and got a woman who got rude with me because I was upset and wanted off of their call list.
