The ratio of unsolicited sales calls I get from Duct Cleaning companies is much higher than any other business, services, or charities. It must be a real high margin business to employ live sales people, or a loss leader for other home services.

I have sometimes thought they are phishing for information, including your voice print if they can engage you in a conversation.  

Those unsolicited sales calls you get from Duct Cleaning companies are most likely scams. I believe that scam was also investigated by CBC Marketplace.
