     Our receptionist just received one of these calls (5/11 @ 1pm EDT).
     
     After the the postings last week by folks in this group, I alerted my 
     Operations manager. We then recycled the internal memo from a year 
     ago.
     
     Our receptionist transferred the call to our PBX Admin. When he picked 
     up, the caller hung up.
     
     Thanks for the heads up!!!

Curiously, why DO they incorporate this feature?
