Just got a call for the boss. He's at lunch. This guy rambled on with his name, phone, company before I could ask. He asked to leave a message. Gave me all the info again. I asked if he'd like to leave a message along with his contact info.
"Yes. Please tell him that we specialize in the acquisition and liquidation of companies and I'd like to know what plans he has for his company. He's not expecting my call."
I wanted to tell the guy to go fuck himself.

Creepy. Sounds like your company is being eyed by a predator who checked public records.

Normally, they don't want to leave any details. This one was chatty.
It was like seeing a fin in the water.
