I am on the DNC list...I have received several calls from this number which is Identified on the Caller ID as "Secure ID". No messages are ever left. I called the number back, receiving a recording to press a number to speak to customer service or another number to be removed from their contact list. I wanted to find more info about the company so I chose the Customer Service option...well, no agent came on the line...a recording requested that I leave a message.
Aren't THEY suppose to check numbers to make sure the numbers are not on their DNC list? A few days ago, I picked up the call and there was a long pause, as their system transferred me, I hung up...meaning these are computer generated calls...it shouldn't be difficult to merge the DNC list into their calling software.
The REAL problem is they identify themselves as "Secure ID" on the CID and that is not their real company name. So, for anyone who has a Secure ID fob from their company...it's deceptive, misleading and misrepresentative of another company's name.
It seems that this is one gang working under a variety of names. Among them:
ID Crime Watch
ID Protect
ID Watch
Protect Senior ID
Secure ID
Secure ID Service
Senior Crime Watch
These are/were web sites associated with this gang:

All 8 sites are hosted at 192.41.94.149 and all have domain registrations through GoDaddy using the Domains by Proxy service to conceal the name and address of the domain owner(s). Many of the web sites give a street address of 831 East 340 South, American Fork, UT 84003 with differing "suite" numbers (130, 150 and 200).
They call from many phone numbers, which are probably spoofed in order to conceal their identity and location and to deliberately deceive call recipients into thinking it's a local call (local area code), so they're likely violating the Truth in Caller ID law as well.
Sir Bedevere...
WOW!!! I don't know how you got all that info...in a way it's scary :) ...but, useful. I hope the FCC picks it up to shut them down!
Thanks!
