I'm kicking this into Spiceworks Support. I'm not sure how/where these third parties are getting your info, but I'm pretty sure it's not coming from SW.

The only way I can see it is that they are looking at profiles, find your phone number, and looking at the groups that you are apart of. "Oh, you are apart of the Dell group. You must like Dell. I'll call on behalf of Dell as apart of some spearphising."

Your contact info isn't public though. Any of that contact/company info on your profile is just used by Spiceworkers to try to find people who might be interested in participating in research studies, betas, livestreams, etc. We don't give that out.

I'll look into this, Briser. If anyone else gets a call like this, the more info you can give us, the better! :] Feel free to...
