I got a call this afternoon (3:12 p.m. 7/27/09) from this number. The automated message said it was from Advocates for Manageable Health Care. The call came in on my pre-paid wireless phone, a number that shouldn't have been available anywhere since I don't give it out and use it only to call or receive calls from family members.
Just got this call @ 1510 PST 7/27/09
It was a robo-call for a "National Healthcare Program". They were offering health insurance for "$3 a day". Obviously scammers so I hung up.
This is a telemarketing company making ILLEGAL robo calls to numbers on the national "Do not call" registry, as well as illegally using automated dialers to call cell phone numbers. (Per http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/alerts/alt107.shtm Q&A item 10 says "FCC regulations prohibit telemarketers from using automated dialers to call cell phone numbers." When I tried to advise agent of this, he called me stupid and hung up.
Had a missed call from these guys. When I redialed it, an automated voice said to press 1 to be put on do not call list. Isn't that what I am supposed to be on with my cell phone?
