voice mail spam for hosting? wtf??
 

i just got a voice mail from a 1-877 phone number.

apparently aplus.net will design my business' website for only $249. and i can't forget to ask them about their hosting services and getting my business' domain name for only $5.99

wtf.

Give them a call back to sell them on your service :glugglug

I hate telemarketing. People must buy stuff from them or they wouldn't keep doing it, but I've never met anyone who bought anything this way.

I used to get a fax from them about once a week trying to sell that.

They have called me several times. Its pretty funny.

"Hey, I just saw that you registered a new domain, do you need help with that or possibly hosting?"

Yes, I'm too stupid to know what to do with a domain name that I just bought in a pack of 20 other domains. And please recommend a good hosting company, I have no idea where to go!

That's fucking lame.

Weird thing is I have no idea where they got the number. The number is only 4 months old and I haven't used it to register a domain.

I fucking HATE telemarketers. An old roomate of mine was one and was able to get my number on a do not call list as it is illegal to market to telemarketing employees suposedly, but since he moved out the shit started again.

I received a call from the same folks. I just had 5 minutes to spare and called back asking for the bitch who left the message. I was asked a whole bunch of questions like extension number, etc. Of course, none of that info was left on the message and I gave them a piece of my mind.

So I did what anyone with 5 minutes to waste would do, I let the girl who answered the phone do her spiel. And I acted like I was REALLY interested. I mean, when I pay about 10 times less than $249 for hosting, how could I not be interested.

So I was leading her on when I got bored, wanted to end it and started to throw more curve balls that any telemarketer could take. "Why should I host with you?" "Why that price" and so on. It got really fun when I asked if they hosted extremely graphic, hardcore bukkake and if she wanted to model :Graucho

I don't think they will be calling again :glugglug

haha I got a call on my cell today, same shit i think.
