"242 W. 36th St"

My wife has been getting spam every day saying: "To stop all future
mailings, follow the link below or send your email address to:

Member Services 242 W. 36th St,12th floor
New York, NY 10018 (866) 872-6022"

She sent me with her Email address to 242 W. 36th St,12th floor New
York, NY. I went last week. It is an unrelated business there. They
know nothing about spam. Business there is in TV production
company. I called (866) 872-6022 and only an answering machine
answers. I asked that they give correct address in their out-going
message.

This week my wife and I were in the area. I am legally blind and have
trouble reading the building directory. Therefore I asked my wife to
examine directory, she says there is NO "Member Services" listed!!!

Again I called (866) 872-6022. There was NO correct address in their
out-going message.

I have been calling from payphones on street as I have a lot of
business to do in the West 30s and 40s in NYC. I tell them to put
correct address in their out-going message.

When it their area I have been calling maybe every 30 minutes, hoping
to get the correct address but it is never given. I realize that there
is a surcharge to them of perhaps as much as fifty cents on every call
to their toll-free number from a payphone. But all I want is the
correct address.

Could I perhaps be mis-dialing? Could others please call and ask that
correct address be put in their out-going message? To avoid your
private phone number being harvested, I recommend that you too call
from a payphone.

Comments?

[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: Thank you, as a good citizen who is
merely trying to be helpful. I am sure other readers will be inspired
by your tireless efforts to get the correct address on their recorded
message for other folks to use. And it is good that you are using pay
phones whenever you can. Okay folks, _you know the routine by now_.
Let the user of 866-872-6022 know about the error of his ways. PAT]
