This is an alarm company somewhere in the south that uses an auto dialer to generate leads for alarm system sales.
I have received several upset calls in my office in California regarding this. We are Security Solution in Arcadia CA, but we are not the ones making the calls. We don't even sell alarm systems.
My phone rang barely twice from this number, with identifier "out of area" plus the number, and while I was deciding whether or not to answer it, the ringing stopped. I have had this exact same thing happening repeatedly yesterday and today, from only "out of area" without a phone number. Have no idea if they are connected but I really wish they'd stop calling.
1-260-969-9387 called about the Free General Electric Security alarm system - I pressed #1 to talk to a human & I started out asking: "Who is paying for this system?" Surprise ... they hung up on me.
After I looked up the # to confirm it's w/in the USA, I called them back - requesting they take my name & number off their list. (I've done this several times over the past few months - calls always come from a different number .... but the calls continue )
A few moments later, I got a call from 214-452-1496. The man said he was from Alliance Security & he was very pleased to hear I was 'interested in their product'. Again, I asked 'who pays' & he said the home owner
(I rent) & he begins explaining the equipment is free (insulation & activation cost was free) ... Entirely too much chit-chat from his end ... bottom line: $36 - $54 monthly cost.
I let him know: I was NOT interested in his product & NEVER would I allow strangers *who solicit me* have access to my home, much less monitor the safety of my home & family! I asked to be taken off their list & he began his sales talking again ... so I repeated my request & hung up.
Everyone freaking out can settle down - this isn't a government program.
It's probably a program designed to help owners of security companies across the US to drum up some business - which I understand - I'm just not interested in paying for their security.
We feed our Rottweiler for less!
do as I did and go to the federal trade commision website. Thet have place to report robocalls. What they are doing is illegal. There is information on ftc website that tells how to deal with this
