Robo opening about senior medicare products available at no cost since Medicare has already paid the bill. Stay on the line after pressing one and a dumb a.. will help you. Calls from several different numbers with same robo opening. SCAMMERS
Called my land line today - called ID was "SEN DEPOT". I didn't pickup the call & no message was left. Based on the other responses here, I blocked the number.
If they're selling or giving away "senior alert's" they probably want your Medicare ID number... regardless, I'm register on the do not call list, so this must be an illegal scammer, trying to steal money or identity.
The FTC (Federal Trade Commission) has just ruled that the telephone companies can and should provide free blockers within their systems to block these scammers and con artists.
There is an effort being made by Consumers Union (they publish Consumer Reports). The effort is a petition to the phone companies—responsible for these phone calls—to offer free scam blockers.
The telephone companies are dragging their feet. They do not screen scammers and are making money off their harassing telephone Robocalls to consumers.
Signing the petition is sure to help. Consumers Union has clout because of the numbers.
Please go to www.EndRobocalls.org to end the madness, harassment and scams. You can also go directly to the Consumers Union website for the same information. Thank you.
Also, contact your Congressman. Congress should address this issue since it is a federal problem. My California Congressman Garamendi did not respond until after 13 E-mails, but I hope you have a better Congressperson than me.
Another medic alert scam. Operator was an obvious loser. I kept insulting him but he kept on reading from the script. Remained on phone even tho I asked if 'his parents had any kids that lived' and 'are you an illegal immigrant?' and 'are you in prison and the only reason you are making these calls is to get out of your cell and escape the daily a$$ rapes?'
Government has passed new legislation banning robo calls but unless they can trace the calls back to a legitimate number its all for naught. Our hard earned tax dollars at work. pfft.
