Unsolicited calls...

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HOUSING.

Last month we called an agent to look at a home. We wound up never seeing the home, but the agent had our unlisted home number and my name.

Last night I get a call that I had been "referred for a wonderful sales opportunity!" Something that I would pay to learn more about...Turns out it was the AGENT who never met me who referred me and gave my name and number.

Are they allowed to do this? I had no idea I might be getting unsolicited borderline harassing calls after sharing my number with agents!

exactly. just register on the DNC list and tell them that you are on the DNC if/when they call again and they will hang up so quickly!!!! its punishable by like a $10k fine (in that ballpark).

I am on the DNC list. I just thought it was weird that the realtor was giving out my number...
