702-362-5167
 
I've gotten three phone calls from this number so far tonight.

It's some recorded message offering to help me sell my car.

I listed it on AutoTrader yesterday, so I know this is the cause. The question is, did AutoTrader give them my phone number or do they have a bot that captures this.

I know they are based in Nevada. Maybe tabs or Jordi could firebomb them for me?

I did a Google search. Lots of complaints from people that have listed their cars on AutoTrader and Craiglist.

I also filled out a Do-Not-Call complaint.

I don't think it's the Auto Trader. More likely a bot.

This (sorta) happened to me when I put a rental in the local paper. I was inundated for MONTHS after it was rented with calls from folks who purchased "homes for rent" listings from websites. I told the callers how they were scammed and most were pizzed.

Yeah, it's a bot... I got it as well. Asshat. When I was trying to sell my Porsche on Craigslist, "Nick Price" emailed me every time about advertising on Porscha Trader. :rolleyes: Damn bots.

I don't recall the number, but the same crap happened to me. I listed it on Autotrader and Craigslist, and my phone started ringing immediately with jerks trying to sell me their 'national vehicle marketing services'. Wankers.

Maybe it is me trying to dissuade you from selling my car.

Mabye Pelicans could organize a little payback.
Everyone call at 6pm and keep them on the phone for exactly 5 minutes with whatever information or stalling technique.
Then everyone call at 7pm with the same thing.
Then at 8pm just say "__please__don't call Chris, you _nice person__" and hang up.

took six months to get them to stop calling

Advertise in the Trader, CL, or cars.com or newspaper... you get a call from these guys.
