Re: Cell Phone Question

Good point, Rob.
We get heavily hammered here in Aus, they seem to be able to bypass the
DoNotCall Register.

There is a new technique here now, where the telemarketing centres in the
Philippines, Hong Kong, SE Asia generally, are able to display an Aus
number (presumably come in via an internet connection), appearing to be
calling from any Aus state, with the giveaway being an extended pause prior
to the telemarketing operator engaging you if you answer the call.

For a few years now, we have also had nuisance calls telling us that our
computer is sending out viruses and if we give them access they can fix the
problem.

Perhaps Peter has a totally different frame of reference. Do they have
telemarketers calling you either at home or on your cell phone in Europe?
Does he even know what a telemarketer is?

ps: Peter, lighting is a big part of our business. And Philips is
included.
