Dan Gillmor on 111-111-1111

Published 2/21/05

Filed under: Miscellaneous

Back in November, I commented on how some companies come through my Caller ID as “111-111-1111″ as a way to get around my “no anonymous calls” feature. It’s slimy.

Now I see that Dan Gillmor has also noticed this. Glad I’m not alone.

I got the 111-111-1111 show up on my phone display here at work. And we are a REFINERY in Indiana. They asked for “Peter Donelly” and when I told “her” she must have a wrong number, she flat out hung up. Real impressive person.
