Hey it's Tyler from Gift Recovery once again offering to give me $25,000 that I won on a sweepstakes entry in the last 18 months!! Whoo-hoooo! All I gotta do is call the Toll Free # and collect my winnings! Looks like Tyler has moved to Wisconsin this time but the toll free # to call him back is the same as last time! Just like this continuing scam...
Well, blocked this new incoming number so I won't hear from Tyler again until he "moves" again and calls in from somewhere else!
Don't call me again or there will be serious consequences. You already owe me 4K for packing my voice mail, so, thus, I lost work. If you are ready to lose your company, continue. I hope, for your benefit that you see this comment...I mean read...no evidence that you are capable
Called 12:45 PM , July 3. No message, just dead air. When I called back, dead air! Phone says Milwaukee, Wis. We are Verified as being on the so-called " Do-Not-Call List" which is a bunch of Federal Government [***]. What is the reason for having this list if it doesn't work, or have any teeth? Just to provide work for Government union workers? Just spending American Citizen taxpayer's money for NOTHING!

Exactly how is the DNC list not working?
Legitimate telemarketers use it to prevent calls to registrants. Just think - if there were no such list, you would be getting calls from BOTH legitimate and scam "telemarketers".
The DNC list is NOT a call blocker! If you thought it was, you are very much mistaken.
The DNC list does not apply to charities, political calls, surveys, debt collectors or companies with which you did business in the last 18 months.
The DNC list is ignored by spammers and scammers, and those criminals usually use VOIP or burner phones, and cannot be easily traced. Kristi Thompson of the FCC explained that it can take her anywhere from five to ten subpoenas to trace a single robocall back to its origin
Is there ANY law that is 100% effective in preventing criminals from disobeying it?
The FTC penalizes organizations located in the USA that violate DNC provisions, but only if those organizations are identified! Have you done your part to identify your callers?
The DNC organization does not sell its list to non-registered telemarketers.
All this information, and more, is available on the DNC site, for those who have the cerebral capacity to read and understand. Apparently you do not qualify, but prefer to mislabel things that you do not understand.
If you want more protection than provided by the DNC list, get a call blocker app, device, or service, and learn how to use it correctly. Try a little self-responsibility!
Ok. I guess you leave your house unlocked when you go to work or out right? I mean after all, there is a law against someone entering your house and stealing so there is no need to lock the door. And we all know that everyone obeys the law right?
Received a call from Tyler at the gift recovery department in regards to the $25,000 they are giving away. And great news, I am a winner!! Instructed me to call back at a different number, 1-844-539-9192 to claim my prize. Location of the call was WI, USA.
