Thank you for your input. My best guess was that it was an outsourced financial arm - taking care of leasing and applecare.

My experience is a bit different. I contacted Apple about a business lease on a MacBook Pro. I contacted Apple Financial, and they sent me an application for lease. Once I sent that in, Justin Pearson called from Apple. We chatted for a few, and he told me he would be processing my lease app that was forwarded to him, and that he would be the contact. He was a young guy, like myself (27), so he

Just called me, said "This is AJ from Apple". Asked me "How are things going?" Then asked me something about some sort of X Serve. When asked what he was talking about said something about believing me to be with a Jacob School of Engineering and an invoice they'd gotten.

Very unprofessional. Very suspicious. Didn't say anything regarding an actual sales call.

I realize phone numbers can be spoofed ... but the number has been in existence for over 2 years and apparently IS a number Apple is aware of.

You can only spoof the caller ID you can't spoof a number to have calls received ... in other words I couldn't route 1-800-SOS-APPL to my home phone.

From another blog on the topic:

I've been getting calls on my cell for weeks from 916-399-7992. I Googled it and found out it was Apple. For some reason, I believed maybe I won something - like iTunes dollars. Nice. Why else would they be calling me twice a day for the past two weeks? Not the case. Instead, I was greeted by some dude who proceeded to try to hyper-aggressively strong-arm

We're sorry. We did not find a listing for the phone number you entered.
The phone number "(916) 399-7992" is based in Scrm Main, CA and the registered carrier is Pacific Bell. However, due to number portability, some numbers have been transferred to a new service provider other than the registered carrier.

I just got a call last night as well, the odd thing was his communication skills were low and not scripted very well. He said that he wanted to let me know that my warranty on my mac mini was going to expire and wondered if wanted to go ahead and "take care" of buying a Apple extended warranty. I refused and then I asked him if he wanted anything else; I then ended the conversation. It was odd in
