I got this call at 7:26pm. The recorded message asked questions about FL Rep. Ron Klein, candidate Alan West, and President Barack Obama. At the end, there were questions about if anyone in the household belongs to or has belonged to a union. The message said the company was National Opinion Surveys, 202-637-5249. My callerid said 202-974-8147. I did a reverse phone number look-up on FREEALITY, and both numbers are registered to land lines in Westchester, DC.
to Mr. Rech
You are an idiot. Right wing Bastards are Republicans. Left is democrat you dumbass
my number is a do not call. make the mistake of calling again and watch me sue you so fucking fast it will make your head spin you right wing bastards.
Just received a call from this number tonight 12/3/09 7:10 P.M. EST
Comes up unavailable, no message left when answering machine came on, they hung up.
fucking obama clowns trying to tell that asshole is doing a good job
Seen this number on my caller id, I called them and they said the voice mailbox was full. Have read other comments for this number that it was a survey. Unfortunately, surveys are exempt from the do not call registry.
Called after 9 pm. I am on the no call list!
We received a few calls from 202-974-8147. Even though we are in the no-call-list. It is a recorded message from Working Americans who is conducting a survey.
I googled WorkingAmerica and called them at 202-637-5137. They removed me from the calling list. I really dislike telemarketer, especially those with recorded message.
You can find out more about this telemarketer at the following website

This recording called at 11:15 pm! Ridiculous to call that late at night! I hung up the minute it started talking about wanting votes from working Americans.
Working America, left-wing-nuts, Inc. They're like ACORN on crack. What a waste of my tax dollars, they give respectable scammers a bad name, as if there is such a thing. You can complain all you want but I doubt Uncle Charlie will have any power over a fellow gov't entity that disappears as soon as you try to call them back. Just upgrade your phone plan to include call blocking or auto forward their number to another scammer.
The caller is Working America, which is a grassroots movement to create an aggregate union of working people in order to establish political power by controlling a large block of voters. They are, not surprisingly, affiliated with the AFL-CIO. They're NOT associated with the Democratic party; in fact, their agenda is much farther to the left (and completely unrealistic) than most of us damned liberals. Among other things, they want legislation guaranteeing a "living wage" for all jobs, with a minimum wage much higher than warranted by the skill set needed for many occupations.
They are also pests. They had a door-to-door campaign going a few years back and showed up at my house a number of times, even though I told them "no thanks," every time.
Now you can decide it you want to deal with them.
These idiots call repeatedly and 3-4-5 times in several hours. Some dumb ass political crap. Your tax dollars at work!!!!! Call the do not call and file a complaint!!!!
I work for the USPS as a mail carrier. I'm a union member. I got a call today from this # informing me that Al Franken had officially been declared the winner over Norm Coleman in the MN senatorial race. (No duhhhh, dipshits! U think I live under a rock?!) The recorded message wants The Hammer 2 get on Gov. Pawlenty's ass 2 sign this or that. Anyway, based on the content of the message, I'm guessing the # can be traced to a Democratic think-tank/interest-group or whatever they are called.
It was some kind of recorded political poll. Didn't answer it, it recorded on the answering machine.
Caller telephoned twice without leaving a message.
I answered the call. There was a recording that said, "Hello", then it disconnected after several seconds.
I received a call this evening at 8:45 pm. Caller ID showed this: WASHINGTON DC 1-202-974-8147. Caller disconnected after 4 rings; my voice mail picks up after 5 rings, so there was no message.
Missed a call from this number at 9:45 pm. No message was left. Called it back and got msg saying that the voicemail box was full and could not accept messages
saw i missed a call from this number, on my cell phone, a couple minutes ago. So i called back, thinking it might be a friend. instead i got a recording suggesting that i should leave a message. then a recording the mailbox was full, but i could get an operator by entering *-0. then a note that all operators are busy and i am being returned to my last task. weeeird.
Just received six calls in a row from this number, each spaced exactly six minutes (to the second!) apart. This would lead me to believe that the calls are automated. No messages were left. I'm on the Do Not Call List as well, but it doesn't seem to block all calls. :\
Walked into house & heard phone ringing. Caller ID said Unavailable. No message was left. Called it back and got msg saying that the voicemail box was full and could not accept messages. No other identifying info was left.
My cell rang just once. No message was left...my wife's phone keeps getting calls from Kay Jewelers.
All of our phones were registered on the national "do not call" list. A lot of good that did! (6-11-2009)
