Has anyone else received automated telemarketing calls offering HVAC repairs and maintenance in the last month?
It used to start off "Attention homeowners!" but it has been updated and I forgot what the opening line was today.
They spoof their caller ID so it displays a fake number. The last time they called, they were displaying the number 916-851-5754, but they have spoofed other numbers, so you cannot call back or report the number.
I have received the calls on a cell phone and multiple times on a work phone. A few weeks ago all the phones in the office started ringing at the same time with the same robocall. They must be using some kind of auto-dialing system calling every number.

I waited on the line and spoke to the lady (same lady's voice each time, so it must be only one person answering calls). She claims the company name is "Central Heating and Air." I'm sure that is a fake name and is not searchable because it is so generic.
She wanted me to give my address to schedule an appointment, but she was unwilling to give out a real company name, address or working call back number.
Has anyone figured out who they are? They are doing everything they can to hide their identity so they can't be reported and shut down.

By the way, McAfee blocked one of the ad banners at the top of the page saying it contained links to suspicious/dangerous content.
