got robocall from 401-384-2970 caller ID said "UNKNOWN NAME" on Tuesday 5-06-14 @ 239 PM.
Message was from "Medical Alert' for a FREE medical Alert System..........press 1 to talk to a rep......"
Pressed 1 and a male came on the line and he asked "Who am I speaking to"
I told him 'You are calling 911 U dirty expletive expletive and I then blew the "SCAMMER HORN".
Gave him more expletives and more of the "SCAMMER HORN" until the SCAMMER bailed.
Callers like this and dozens of other unscrupulous scum bags are making a mockery out of the so-called "No call" list.
We have been on the federal and state "No-Call List" since their inception, and we still get multiple telemarketing every week, sometimes four or five every day. I have already tried putting a stop to them by registering a formal complaint. What a joke! I have also tried talking to the caller and asking them to remove our number. Most are automated calls, many of them from a foreign country. When I bring up the No-Call law and ask what gives them the right to violate it, they hang up.
Now, I just use the caller ID and don't bother to answer the telephone if the number is the least bit suspicious. Anyone who wants to reach my wife and I better not have a block on their caller ID.
