I got a call yesterday and one this morning (before 9 AM) from this #. I let both calls go to voicemail. No messages left.
The main reason I am even reporting this # is I have been getting multiple calls in the am for the last 3 days from both various 800-555 #s plus these 2 240-212-0404 calls. I am at the enough is enough phase as I am getting woken up by too many bogus calls the past several days by various "unknown" callers. None of the calls are of any substance apparently. I called 240 212-0404 back from 2 different phones an hour plus apart - "all circuits are busy - please try your call again later".
The caller began with, "(Name), I'm calling from the Sheriff's Protection Department..." at which I said, "Forget it!" and hung up. This was surely a scam call.
