A while ago I wrote a dutch blog regarding the dutch telecom provider Pretium (can be found here). They lured my granny into an account with them and luckily we were bright enough to stop them immediatly. That story luckily ended well; for many others however it didn’t yet.
Recently I was called by Pretium myself; after hearing their name I informed them that I am not going to do any business with them and I hung up.
Apparently that is not informative enough; my dad was called a few days later with the same story (they initially didn’t say their name, but they started with “you have an KPN account now right?”); after he inquired for their name and they told him, he also responded with ” I am not doing business with you”.
So their activities are still ongoing, please be aware. Do not let yourself get fooled by them, just tell them to go away. At some point it will stop.
