Another medical alert program scam--likely just to get your credit card or banking information to charge the 'small handling fee'.
And Hubtones, thank you so much!
You actually posted useful information!!!
Most of the time when you do a search of a suspect phone number you find 20 or 30 posts that say crap like "didn't answer", "called 10 times today", "get calls all the time but I don't answer numbers I don't recognize", "called, didn't leave message", "I'm on the do not call list", etc, etc, etc and so many other totally WORTHLESS posts that give absolutely NO useable information! (As if we care that you are on the do not call list or didn't answer because you didn't recognize the number) .
Nobody cares about your 'do't know who called' posts people, we only come here for actual useable information----such as hubtones posted!
Sadly, you can't. It's too easy for them to just re-establish themselves under a new company name with new phone numbers if they do get caught---which doesn't happen often.
And sadly they prey mostly on seniors who may actually need some type of alert service and don't research the company before signing on. Or, these services are pretty expensive, especially for a senior trying to get by on Social Security, and when these scammers offer it for free or very cheaply, many seniors sign on thinking they are getting a legitimate service.
It's shameful!
Thanks to the following posts for posting the scam numbers: Ann Noid & John-of-Lower-Merion. I will follow your advice and make a NASTY PHONE LIST for my senior relations so they know not to answer these calls or just let them ring. Sure will save me time looking them up for them and it will give them peace of mind. Thanks again for the helpful information.
