I get these alot this ph # 516-430-5137 its very annoying to me. they call and dont leave a message. I try calling it back some operator guy's voice said "the cricket number you called is out of service" then how and WHY are they calling me? thanks for the tips I never donate to something or someone that calls ME.
Caller from Wantagh, NY. I do not answer callers I don't know. No message left.
Demand your phone service provider give you better options to block unwanted calls. I called Optimum to complain, but one call is not going to solve this. Their blocking system is primitive. Their are their engineers are inept. Their technology is antiquated and useless against some tech savvy telemarketers.
Calls received up to 3 times per day from 516-430-5137 & caller ID shows TROOPER ASSOC. I always let it go to voicemail and they leave no message. I double checked with local NYS Police barracks and they confirmed that THEY DO NOT EVER do phone solicitations.
I just got a caller from this phone number; the caller addressed me by name and started to say he was calling on behalf of state troppers nationwide on behalf of prevention of driving under the influence, etc. I did not let him finish his spiel and told him I would investigate State Troopers. He has a very gentle, soft voice which probably sometimes inspires trust in some people.(except for me). Sounded like a scam to me which apparently is the case judging from all the other commentary.
The NY State Police deny any connection to this scammer - please forward any info on payment details, etc that you can gather both to the NY Attorney General's Office as well as the U.S. Attorney General - while the odds are against it, if they are caught they will be prosecuted to the fullest! Warn your friends (particularly seniors) about these hucksters! The assigned number traces back to Wantagh (Nassau County) NY, but that merely the number provided them by Peerless Networks to hide their (possibly overseas) location...
