These are all the numbers I have for Med Alert scams as reported here or otherwise.
Most are probably robo calls and come up as Unknown Caller, which I don't answer along with pretty much any number I don't recognize as well as Private Caller. If they can't leave a message, can't be important.

I've got a file I've labeled 'Nasty Numbers' - I keep track of info on them and when they call. Saves me time so I don't have to look them up at 800 Notes every time they ring trough.
# 570-309-3012 Calls several times a day, every day! Try to answer, no one is there, it just hangs up. Tried to call back, got no ring tone but stayed on the line for several minutes after dialing them back anyway. The phone line never makes a connection and finally it say all circuits are busy please try your call again later. The only reason I answer is to tell them to remove my number from their calling list! They are very annoying!!!!!! How do we stop these calls???
Similar to other recent calls for free Medical Alert alarm scams. Opens with an offer for free $3,000 in grocery certificates before getting to the point about a "free" medic alarm service.
Of course they ignore the Federal Do Not Call list, which certainly tells you something about their business practices, doesn't it?
Here is a transcript of the call:

If you or a family member are 60 years old or older, you now qualify under the new National Senior Assistance Program to receive $3,000 in free grocery savings certificates.
