Expert Opinion

Skip the free‑ticket lure, because these calls are a high‑pressure telemarketing scheme targeting real‑estate investors. Callers claim you’ve won free tickets or a complimentary tablet if you attend a real estate seminar, then pressure you into paying steep course fees. Never share personal or financial details with unknown callers, and always verify a company’s legitimacy before committing. Register your number on the Do Not Call list, use call‑blocking tools, and hang up if the pitch feels rushed or vague. Report persistent offenders to the FTC or your state consumer protection agency, and share your experience to warn others.

On June 13, 2011, at 11:33 AM, I received a call from (502)871-3347 regarding property-related matters. When I inquired about how they obtained my cell number, I was met with resistance and promptly told them I wouldn't engage in any conversation. It's frustrating, considering I'm on the DO NOT CALL LIST, which raises questions about the government's potential involvement in selling our numbers to alleviate debt or line their own pockets. I plan to investigate this further by contacting my Congressman, Senator, and the Attorney General's Office in my state to put an end to these unwanted calls.
