Thanks for the support guys

Regarding the telemarketing thing, I’m just worried who else can get the database!

Sorry to hear about the health dude. Lots of people I know are sick.. some bloody virus doing the rounds I bet ! Anyhoo… yeah… I think most of them tele-marketers get numbers from some service that sells them.. I suspect the Citi that never sleeps though….

And that City Finance guy…. I ask him to f*ck off!

Sorry for your bad health, hope you get well soon. and yeah re that telemarketing stuff, that is pretty bad…but still you know what.. my friend the other day called up a 197 kind of service [not 197 but ~] to get numbers of some PC sellers [he wanted a PC] and guess what, the whole day he was flooded with calls from PC vendors. Sir please buy our machine CRAP whole day !!!

Wish there was a DND list in India .

I think they buy databases from

1) mobile companies or thier unscruplous employees

2) Other organisations like some other loan company where you already took a loan /filled a form

I think that banks are less likely to spill information

But this is a problem everywhere in India these days with lax privacy laws
