You might remember that a survey, or maybe I should say an application circulated to beta test Google products.

There are many and they come in at least 3 times a day. I answered one and it was Medical Alert Systems. I don’t want any part of that.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>My companion, Hope, has a client who filled out the same form as me. Hope Googled Sprint, Lt. which is the company from which the calls come. It is a telemarketing agency in Hartford. Hopes client actually talked to people from 2 of the numbers. Each number represents a different company such as Medical Alert, hearing aid companies and so on. Apparently, Google sold or gave info from the beta testing products form to Sprint, Lt. for telemarketing even though the form stated nothing would be given out. Lie!<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Frontier Communications allows a small number of phone numbers to be blocked if one has the service. I’ve blocked 7 of the 860-200 numbers. I will not answer any more of them and will block as many as I can.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I will never do anything like that again. I should have known better. Hopefully the calls will stop soon and given the chance, I’ll let Google know what I think of their practices.
