I missed a call and called this number back. The recording said I may owe back taxes to the IRS. If so, I could press 1 and talk with a representative. I don't owe any back taxes, so I just hung up.
they called again on my ATT cell at 5:40 pm on 4/26/12. I didn't answer and they didn't leave a vm. My Mother rec'd these types of calls all day and night on the home number--this went on for 6 months she finally called the police who said there was nothing they could do but give her a report number, she called the telephone company with the pd report # and they said 'only the police could do anything'. She also called the FCC and the FTC who took a report and said they'd look into it. They have since stopped calling my mother's home number.
These yayhoos (aka CROOKS) have been calling me for 2 years now. The DO NOT CALL list is fruitless (Come on! its the Gov't), The FTC, FCC, FBI, CIA and countless Attorney Generals have been told about these CROOKS (Come on! its the GOV'T!!). So what to do...about these jerks...one guy even traced the owner of this scam who lives in FLA but it appears they may be from offshore. The numbers you see as the source aren't even real. WE as pissed off Americans must work together here....if you are of Italian decent...and you KNOW somebody to handle these things...GO for it!! I've read several people try to distract them so they can't call others...but they have you on their computer so once they see the notes on other calls they just hang up.
Can you imagine the application to work for these CROOKS....Are you an A-HOLE?...yes...you got the job! Welcome aboard!!!
Since you are now on their list because you punched a number (me too)...I like this idea till we collectively figure out how to end this...buy a whistle, horn or any ear piercing device...hit 1 on ur phone..wait for them to pickup and BLAST AWAY!! It won't stop them BUT just maybe if enough of us do it at least the crooks may have hearing issues pretty damn quick...who knows..they might even remove those numbers from their list...worth a try I say....Americans UNITE! WE CAN OVERCOME!!!!
Ps: I read alot of your comments and we need to get the word to others to stop them....with the use of a $5 air horn one guy reduced his calls to once a month! Imagine if we ALL do it!!
KEEP RE-POSTING THIS INFO SO OTHERS WILL GET ON BOARD...FIGHT BACK
They called my cell and I didn't answer. I think these jerks SHOULD go to jail! They're using my cell minutes and that's stealing!! It shows being generated in Renton, Washington.
