Offer of free security system if you let them place "a small sign" on your lawn. Tells you to press 9 to be removed from their list. Caller ID read "Med Alert". Last week received identical call (these are recorded messages) from an unidentified caller from a different number: 307-316-7522. Pressed 9, but obviously it did not work.
Received another call about qualifying for "home security". I live in a hi-rise apt. bldg. No front lawn and good lobby security u a**holes. What really says they're scammers to me is when I did call back there was no option even to be removed from their call list. As if that wd. do any good anyway. Where's the FCC and FTC in all of this? The "Do Not Call" list worked great for a long while but now it's totally ineffective.
6/24/12 yet another telemarketing outfit happily violating the governent's do not call lists. Message "FBI reports. There was a home break in every 15 seconds your local police recommend you protect your home. If you are allow us to place a small sign in your yard. We will install a new security system at absolutely no cost to you whatsoever. There is no cost for the system or the installation whatsoever to hear more press one now to be placed on our do not call list, press 9."
Next time they call set up an appointment but just give the street address of the apartment. Be downstairs with a camera to catch the expression on their face when they show up to do the install.
