Number belongs to Shield Mercantile - they don't leave a company name when they leave a message, just a first name - not a good way to get a single white female to return a call to someone they don't know.

Left a message to call back, did not say who was calling or business. When I called back, they had my number associated with someone I have never heard of. Said they were handling a personal business matter... my guess debt collector
Rude and unprofessional to leave no details with message
Also how dare they request someone give you someone else's details... even if I did know someone, not my place to give out their personal details.

"Arman" called and asked for my friend which I am not even close to and hardly talk to. I asked how he managed to get my number he said he's been calling surrounding business. He asked me to leave her a message to call him back urgently. She said she doesn't know anyone with that name. Shady!

Someone from this number called an Aunt and claimed to be an old family friend! Surely that can't be proper?

Eric (no surname) left a mumbled message that I have to call him back. He's not very good at leaving a message. Idiot. I googled the number "Shield Mercantile".

John called my phone looking for a troy, I said this is my phone and I am a female, so sure as hell I am not Troy. He said he is looking for Troy to find a Janine. I asked how he got my private number and said he got it from a rental application troy had applied for. I said I know a Troy but probably not the same one. He said oh yes it is. I then said well how do you know? Then he said his surname and I said well No it's not and he wouldn't take my word for it at all. First of all you called my phone looking for someone that is named troy and wanting him to tell you where someone else is. Seriously this is a joke.

Lady named JADE called a neighbour in street asking if they knew me and if i lived in the street , when the neighbour asked if they knew me JADE hung up quick smart... I find this type of action disgusting , trying to involve others who i have nothing to do with in affairs that have nothing to do with them at all .....Calling relatives maybe yeah but strangers in the street , thats pretty low act .

Rang looking for "relatives" and connections. Thought it was a fellow family historian. A few things did not add up so tried reverse phone numbers and got all these comments about debt collectors. person not really up front about what they wanted - not really ethical approach. I think this was a debt collector or similar

"Harry" called me today looking for a distant cousin - so distant that he is my father's second cousin's grandson. Made out he was a friend and needed to reconnect. If this idiot really is a debt collector then surely there are laws preventing this type of despicable behaviour.

Fancy calling me for a neighbour!!! How disgusting! Very low practice. What has their problems got to do with me.. if they want to get in touch with that person, they can find them themselves. I WON'T be passing along anything they want! Its absolutely NONE of my business, nor is it good business practice! Judging from the nature of the complaints above.. it's a debt collector!!! NOT MANNERS!!!!
