(240) 397-5331 Robo call recorded 08 October 2014 ("Protect against falls or sudden cardiac arrest...free medical alert alarm..." SCAM)
Caller ID: "Frederick MD"
Also called recently from: (586) 231-3657 | (321) 332-6561
Not sure where they found this low class voice over (love the way she can't pronounce 'button'), but a feeble attempt to use scare tactics ("...accident, fall or sudden cardiac arrest...") to push their "free" medical alert system..
Of course they ignore the Federal Do Not Call list, which certainly tells us something about their business ethics, doesn't it?
Here is a transcript of this "free Medical alert" offer:
[me:] Hello?
[they:] "...in case of a slip and fall accident or sudden cardiac arrest you may not be able to reach your phone to call for help. Don't be another victim lying helplessly on the floor. Get a free medical alert system and help can be reached with a single press of the buh-uhn twenty four hours a day. For your health, safety and peace of mind get your free medical alert system if you act now by pressing 1. Press 5 to be removed but to be protected twenty four hours per day, seven days per week, press 1 now. [7 second pause] "Good bye.".
[At least they didn't say "...laying on the floor..." Gotta give them credit for this, lol.]
Thanks to Google Voice ( www.google.com/voice ) you can hear the recording on my Spam Calls web page:
I get these calls a few times a day and no one is on the other end. I suspected the V100815361100470 was something trying to program my router but I guess I am mistaken. it is just an annoying call.
The V number is the date followed by the time in HH:MM:SS in military (24) time from the time zone the call was placed, followed by some other numbers I've never been able to figure out.
The same number would show on Caller ID if you didn't have a router. Your router is for wireless communication (WIFI) to your mobile devices. Or wired communication to your computer. It has nothing to do with your landline phone.
Time stop these low life bottom of the barrel scum suckers. Also time that all phone companies devised a technique for all of these types of calls to bounce back right at the dirt bags that make them.
I have received numerous calls from various numbers with the caller ID showing "Life Alert" and "Med Advance". The numbers are: 240-397-5331 from Maryland (Aspen Hill, Bethesda, Frederick) under both Life Alert and Med Advance (call rec'd 16 minutes ago), 321-332-6561 from FL (Melbourne, Orlando, Palm Bay), and 307-316-7473 from WY (Casper, Cheyenne, Gillette).
I just got off the phone with the real Life Alert. They do have offices in any of the locations listed above. The rep assured me that they DO NOT cold call people and will only return calls from people interested in their products. I hope this helps!
I've been getting the same “Alert” calls from the numbers you listed. In addition, the pain cream scammers just started calling. These geriatric scams started a few days ago so they're probably all connected. I don't know how we got on the list. Were 29+, but a long way from collecting Social Secuity. Maybe the seniors aren't falling for the scam so they're targeting children and grandchildren to purchase for parents and grandparents.
