“KEVIN” from Illinois Services called and knew my fathers name and addres. He said that he was going to be in the area soon and wanted to schedule a time. I said no I am not that person, I do not live at that address and he asked if I knew the info to contact my father I said no. I said that I’d been through this already and to delete my number and never call again because it was a scam and he said “uh whhhat?” All offended.

Received 2 calls on my cell from "Illinois Services" stating that we may have seen them in our area and they could help with roofing/ siding repair and insurance claims. When I told them that I had already told them to not call me and put me on their DNC list, I was told "this is the first time I’m calling you" and then talking over me when I tell them I want them to stop. I yelled into my phone each time. These guys are infuriating!! He then asked if I was the property owner at my address. Instead of answering him I told him to shut his mouth and listen, put me on their Do Not Call list. I kept saying it and he finally said he was disconnecting.

This "company," which cannot be found in any directory, makes repeated calls to my cell phone, which is on the Do Not Call List, wanting to come and inspect potential storm damage. They call from numerous phone numbers, none of which are valid (try to call back, it’s disconnected or out of service). I keep adding the numbers to my auto-reject; they keep coming up with new numbers. Can’t anyone track down this outfit and fine the heck out of them??? Why are they allowed to ignore the Do Not Call list???

Caller said they were going to be "in my area" to survey storm damage. They wanted to know how old my roof was. I asked if they were a roofing company and for the name of the company. Caller was vague with answers. They did mention my town and my street address. However, they had my phone number, and my parents address. They said they would be looking at storm damage on windows, siding and roof. When asked what storm they were referring to as there has been none.. they said last years…
