They claim to be a company called Medix International. I spoke with a guy named Matt. I told him to take my number off their list and stop calling me, then hungup. They now call once a day at all hours of the day. When I told them today to remove me from their list the reply was, "Oh yeah? You know where you can shove that?" We got into a heated argument at which point I just hung up. As I sit here typing, they JUST called back again. The next time any of you get a call from them, go to www.donotcall.gov and file a complaint (if you are on the Do Not Call list). If you're not, sign up.
Today I received my first call from this strange-looking number. Whomever it belongs to must have 'pull' somewhere or was very, very 'fortunate' to get one with just zero, one, and two in it. Ok, who has money, 'pull' or power in NJ? I don't even want to know perhaps....it's no one I ever met or ever want to meet.
Call came in on my cell phone. I looked at the number, like most, and decided I did not want anything to do with it. I'm thinking it's spam at best, phishing or something worse.
I kill the call then go look it up (201-201-1212). It has a long list of reports. Like someone said, no one I want to talk with. My opinion is that this is an increasing trend in spam to cell phones. If it came after prime hours (8 pm), I would not be as annoyed because it would not use my prime time minutes if I made the mistake of answering it (at least on a week day).
My bottom line is that if the ones making the calls are looking for info on this web site about who was at the other end of the line, look elsewhere. I think even responding this way may reveal more than I intended, although I will continue to make intelligent choices about answering the phone.
