As I understand, our government allows direct marketing by which companies are allowed to buy lists of names and addresses. I assume they buy phone numbers also. Then, we get all these unwanted calls. I was told the social security administration gives out names and addresses as well. CONGRESS could control this but they don't. As I understand, DNC lists do not apply to telemarketers who pay for marketing lists! I suggest as others that you call whomever you can to stop these calls but VOTE AGAINST EVERY INCUMBENT IN POLITICAL OFFICE. As long as we keep putting them back in office, who do they have to fear? Why should they serve us any better? VOTE THEM OUT!!!
These people are using fake numbers and fake names. The Credit Voice is their real name, the name they hold on their telemarketing license, which is in Florida. The calls are coming from 495 Semoran Blvd, Casselberry, Florida. Mike Hilgar runs the place. Complain to the FTC and your state's Attorney General. The FTC already has many complaints on them. Many Attorney General's in different states also have several complaints on these people. Indiana Attorney General has already filed suit against them. The more complaints these organizations get, the sooner they can be stopped.
Got a scam call from this number claiming to be for medical compensation. They always have the wrong name, ignore what you say, and have an Indian sounding accent. These same people have called me from a variety of numbers over the past 2 months.
