I'm sick of these people who think they call me on a phone that I pay for. Maybe we should all send them our phone bills. This is obviously a scam and probably from a foreign country.
This number showed up on my ID as Tom Severs. Whatever you are selling I wouldn't buy it
if it were the last one in the world. These calls are so instrusive, annoying and border on'
harrassment. If I receive any more I shall notify the Attorney General of NYS. It is my'
understanding telemarketers from out of state must obtain a permit to "annoy" NYS residents.
I just got a call from this number. This is a robocall about credit cards. I saved all of the information to report it to my Attorney General. When I got ready to report it, this number wasn't in the Attorney General's data base like the last number I tried reporting. They some are now getting around the Attorney General's online complaint form so it doesn't get to him. Is this happening to others? Servers TDM was on the the ID. It doesn't do any good either to tell these [***] that I'm on the "DO NOT CALL LIST" either.
The FCC has temporarily halted 7 minor unprofitable boiler rooms who will receive a slap on the wrist and be back at it within a few days. In the meantime the calls will continue since they are making money with what is called a CNAM revenue-sharing program through companies like http://www.telephonemanagement.net and http://www.CallerID4U.com
In their own words: 'Every day your company makes thousands of outbound phone calls. Every one of those calls generates revenue for many companies, why not yours? Our CNAM revenue-sharing program helps you make money every time a Caller ID request is made by a phone carrier. A high-traffic call center can lose hundreds to thousands of dollars a day to phone carriers by allowing them to charge for access to your own data.'
You can now see why the criminals keep calling even though they know you won't fall for their scam. They are making money even if you don't answer the phone. If someone does make the mistake of answering the phone and falling for their scam then it is just icing on the cake for them. These people are the lowest form of filth on this planet.
What To Do When You Get an Illegal Robocall; http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/microsites/robocalls
1. Hang Up. Do not press 1 or any other numbers to get off the list and NEVER call them back
2. Consider blocking the number or on a cell phone add it to a contact list and assign NO ring tone
3. Report it at http://www.fcc.gov/complaints
4. Report it at https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov
5. People should continually file complaints with their Attorney Generals office
6. Report any criminal activity to the FBI here: https://tips.fbi.gov
This is an all out attack from these scum suckers! EVERYONE should be reporting them everywhere that they can. Since this is an obvious attempt at identity theft the FBI should be forced to get involved. (Prosecute them in criminal court instead of civil penalties).
