Jeez, sorry John for your bad experience. However, these calls are NOT being made by AARP. They are being made by a company that advertises in AARP magazine.
Robocall offering medical alert system for seniors over 65. Tried to get myself removed from their list, but they just call from another scam number that doesn't exist when you call back.
Pressed "1" to speak to a rep. Asked to be removed from their list. The rep had a few choice expletives for me before hanging up on me.
My 2d robocall message today, same male voice, was on behalf of "Senior Alert Specialist LLC" of Las Vegas NV, but earlier today it was TMI Marketing Group LLC of Tampa FL using their Florida SOS registered fictitious name "Senior Care USA." After pressing 1, this 2d robocall had a female voice saying please hold for next representative. 1st robocall came from 541-257-1367, call back from Tmi Management at 813-413-9020.
Eventually a woman came on the line, but she hung up after I started asking Qs.
Caller ID showed "Customer Servic" and Oregon. Both TMI and SAS LLC claim the $400 unit is free but with a $34.95 monthly fee.
I just got the same call. Decided to call back. They wanted me to give them my mailing address and credit card info to sign up for a medical alert device they claimed they were going to see me for free. This is an obvious scam.
