These guys are pulling a pretty scary scam. They are calling to let people know that GE is providing free wireless alarm systems to qualified residents. They are trying to get a lot of personal information and specifically find out if you have a home alarm system. I suspect there will be an increase in home break-ins this year. Be careful and warn everyone you know about this!
I got 4 calls from this number today with a "message" inadvertently left after the last one. The message consisted of "Hi, is <first name> available?... Hello?". My ridiculously short OGM must have fooled the war-dialing robot. Scary thing, I only got this phone number on Friday and the OGM has only the family name. Yet she/it knew my first name. :-/
I received a call from someone who several weeks ago asked questions re a security system, I think. I was asleep when they called. Today, I received a call stating that I had won a free GE Wireless Security System. Again, I was awakened from a sound sleep. I actually made an appointment for tomorrow, which I regret. I hope I can cancell the appointment because we did have a security system that we can hook up. There is also a visible alarm above the garage door. I think it is time to reinstall the system we had.
I don't have caller ID so I don't know the number. The caller, a lady, gave me her number, 203-383-3736. I wonder if it really was her number.
