Lawsuits target Missouri firm
Among the likely culprits are a group of auto-warranty service companies in Missouri, particularly National Auto Warranty Services, also known as Dealer Services, at 100 Mall Parkway in Wentzville, Mo., according to the Better Business Bureau.
The company was sued this year by Verizon Wireless for being behind an "an illegal telemarketing campaign," according to court documents. Florida-based Explicit Media Inc. was also named in the suit, filed July 14 in federal court in New Jersey.
Verizon said the companies are responsible for nearly 3 million unsolicited calls to Verizon subscribers throughout the country, made in violation of Federal Trade Commission telemarketing regulations as well as the Do Not Call registry law.
The companies used "spoofing," a method of masking information, to hide outgoing call numbers, a violation of the Telemarketing and Consumer Fraud and Abuse Prevention Act, court documents said.
It seems that when I report a number here, that I get MORE calls. Is this site a scam?
Now this number is calling and there is no answer when I pick up. It's ANNOYING and I'm on the OFFICIAL NO CALL LIST. I am having the Attorney General check this out. Everyone should look up NO CALL list procedures and the Attorney General in there own states. This is illegal FCC abuse.
Got a call from this number this morning, the message was about my credit card, I pressed 1 and a guy came on the phone and asked if I was interested in consolidating my credit cards, so I said: "so this is a solicitation call", and the guy said: "yes, because you are a moron". I was shocked and then I replied: "YOU are a moron" and hung up. I cannot believe this!!
