The telemarketer claims to be the American Senior Benefit Program, offering to sell me a medical alert system. BTW, the real American Senior Benefits has a prominent note on its homepage stating that any telemarketer claiming to represent them is a fraud. Although the displayed number is an Idaho area code, nobody recognized the name of the governor of Idaho. It is possible that they may have learned it by now, so if you want to waste their time, choose a different name. They did ask me to repeat my credit card number, so it can be good to have a fake 16 digit "credit card number" and 3 digit "security number" ready in advance. (Which I do.) Remember that Visa starts with 4 and Mastercard starts with 5. When they told me that they are having a problem with the number, I decided I'd wasted enough time.
The robo message selling a medical alert system targeted at seniors identifies the company as Senior Medical Benefits. The live caller confirmed this. The name on the caller ID was ADSPLUS. The telemarketing company no doubt. When I told the caller it was illegal to make robo calls without the recipient's permission, he said I must have opted in somewhere. I said I hadn't opted into anything. Then someone had used my number to opt me in, he said.
This was the second call from these people. The first time I pressed the number 5, which was suppose to get me taken off the list.
Also received call on 7/11 Caller ID was ADSPLUS. Message was Senior Medical Benefits. At end I pushed 1 but line went dead.
7/17 Caller ID was V71720465904430 dead line when answered.
