Got this call now twice, claiming I had a shipment of a Medical Alert System free of charge, items and shipping and to schedule and shipping time.. I pressed 1 like it instructed hoping to get a human and it basically hung up on me.. I called it back and got the constant busy signal.. MAKE IT STOP!
So apparently people are not understanding that spoof phone number technology exists to fool caller ID's (look it up on Amazon). Even though the number says it's from the U.S. it is calling from another country where Do Not Call does not apply.
I just received this call as described by all the others. I am not elderly, however my mother is and she lives on her own. She complains every time I talk to her about the amount of telemarketers that call her. Yes, she is registered on the "Do Not Call" list, but it doesn't help.
This is harassment of our senior citizens! I told her to document these calls by time, date, and number and I will complain to the State Attorney General. Has anyone tried this?
