That is so annoying.
At least now you have an explanation.
Something similar is happening to my sister.
She has Verizon and she gets calls at all hours of the pm/am, sometimes 10 minutes apart. Verizon said they could not block the number, but they told her how to set her particular phone to mute when a call comes from that
number. I personally would be livid since I only have a minimum amount of minutes on my cell phone and get charged after that.

I rarely enter contests but that is a good point Amy.

At the moment Fitness USA has been calling trying to get me to renew my contract. I've already told them I not interested, but obviously they don't get the hint.

Candace,

When the detective called Oovoo and introduced himself, the person on the line knew EXACTLY why he was calling and said, "Oh yeah, hold on."

Hopefully, the calls will stop. At least I know which number NOT to answer. I also don't answer "Unknown" calls either. So for any of you who try to call me, make sure your "name block" is off.

Ok being the ever skeptical and private person that I am with my personal info including cell phone number....

Do all you guys that have these calls on your cell pones give out your numbers when you: write checks, enter contests, sign up for anything, buy things, or do any of you text in a vote on 'whatever' type things?

Those are GUARANTEED way's of getting spam calls using up your cell phone minutes.

When I write checks I give them my old, no longer in service home phone number. (they have my correct addy they don't need my phone number)

When I buy things I only give out my cell phone number if it requires a call back to say schedule a delivery or something, and only with local companies. I stress to them it's not my phone and to only use the number if necessary. (it is my phone but they don't need to know that)

I don't EVER text anything/anyone other than my friends and family. Not for voting on things, or entering contests or for any reason. Texting is the same as handing out your phone number to big corporations.

I have my cell phone number on the do not call list.

I've had a cell phone for about 5 years and have never had a probem with spam sales calls. I might get one odd call once a month and it's usually a wrong number, not a spam/sales call.

Donna - hmmm, how funny the guy knew JUST who the cop should talk to! lol

I am assuming their marketing company was the one I contacted also, so they might have picked up the phone and called oovoo, their client!

Everyone I emailed got ALL the links - and got to read all the furious responses....I think the PT one was the only thread without any naughty words!

I hope they pull the plug on this free trial RIGHT NOW. The people who signed up for legitimate reasons will understand. The pranksters will lose.

I think ooVoo bloo it big time...
