The give-away that this was a robo-call was the extended pause between when I picked up the call and the start of the message. The message was spoken by a "cultured" white male voice, that said "Hello". A comment at another call reporting site indicated that this was a "senior phishing" operation.
This number has turned up some odd companies that seem to have used it, or even are still using it: Primera Clase Taxi of Lowell, MA, and Empire Astoria Electric Co., New York, in Astoria, N.Y. Another check on this number brought up the location Woodside, N.Y. -- no name of a company, though.
Do Not Call list has no control over criminals that ignore the law. Most of these calls originate in another country. They use a system of "spoofing" legitimate phone numbers. I've called my home phone from my home phone on several occasions. The Do Not Call system works for legitimate, easily identifiable companies. Not for the scumbag scammers.
Started calling me a couple of days ago. I have not answered any of the calls. First day 1 call. Second day 3 calls. Today 10 calls between 10:43am and 2:09pm. I didn't think I had any room left to block the number but it said it has been blocked. yeah.
within 30 mins we received 3 calls from this number, regarding a free senior something, ps I;m not a senior yet! and if I was Ii'm not interested. I am registered with the national do not call list. I waited to speak to a person, I told them I was on the do not call registry, then they hung up on me. STOP CALLING !!!!
Just got a call from 718-932-5555
Today is my sister's birthday and I had left a vm for her ... I ran for the phone and only saw the "P" which is the first initial of her first name. I answered, they hung up. Then I looked at the phone log and saw the above number. I am so tired of getting calls ... I'm on the Do Not Call List which is a big joke. I tried turning phone numbers over to the FCC, but they don't follow up on individual numbers.
The best thing to do is just don't answer the phone.
