Did anyone else get a phone call on their cell from this number? Apparently in the last couple hours a bunch of people in Canada were called by this number and it was a Spanish recording.
I got it as a missed call but didn't phone back for obvious reasons.
Reverse lookup indicates that it's a landline in Reno, NV.  |

I called it. Its automated.
"Hello, and thank you for calling. This is a travel-related call and we will contact you again shortly. Otherwise, if you wish to be removed from our database press 1 now."

I got it on my cell also. I never used to get these sorts of calls on my cell before but have had a few since adding my number to the "do not call" list. For those that received the call, are you on the DNC list as well?

They screwed up bigtime. The Do-Not-Call list has become the You-Will-Be-Called list...

Yup, got it today @ work. Busy chatting with a coworker and didn't bother picking up. So that's what it was. Thought it was kind of strange as I was expecting a call from Calgary but my phone said Nevada. Oh wellz.
