Scam suspicion

Rude caller, states warnings about DOT non-compliance. Clearly not from DOT.

Scam suspicion

Rude and abrasive caller claiming to be from the DOT. Unprofessional telephone conduct is the first tip off, false warning about DOT issues was second. She called back immediately after being told her message would be delivered, she seemed to have forgotten she'd just called.

Harassment

Called claiming to be the DOT and that we had to file DOT paperwork or we would be fined. The woman got very nasty when I told her that a quick google search showed that they are a scam operation. These people are scammers and deserve a life of misfortune.
