From: "Gregg Nemesure" 

I see the trickery has begun. Today I got a call from "Debt Management
Foundation Services" and the message claims they are a "501c
non-profit organization". Can you believe this crap? I filed a
complaint anyway. At least the donotcall.gov complaint submission form is
finally available.
