They left no message. The FCC no longer takes complaints regarding the phone scammers who robodial your number then neither leave any message nor talk. Worse yet, some states such as NJ, no longer take complaints about DNC violations and the robo-rectums know that thus our elected legislators have given them a blessing to continue annoying us. So, to make it even worse, the phone provider profits by providing service to the scammers and won’t shut them down as it would be lost income for that phone provider who also know the robo-terrorists are out there just by monitoring the bandwidth they utilize. And the phone provider’s even make additional money (via charges for opening new services) by switching the roboterrorists outgoing lines so a complaint about any particular number would be meaningless once the roboscum feel it’s time to spoof another number du-jour. Folks, it’s high time to fight back – contact your phone service provider and request to make your number a toll number for incoming calls from any “Out of the Area”, “Unavailable”, 800, 844, 866 or 888 numbers, so when robocallers attack your privacy then they must pay you for your valuable time. And for paybacks – identify the roboscum and supply their mailing address to every junk mailing firm possible as there are lots of postcards in magazines. On the up side - this will help reduce the USPS debt.
Contact your legislators to stop the robocallers – send them a complaint every time you get a call. Tell them to stop the scumbags or you will elect someone who will! And why not sue the phone providers for their inaction to pull the plug on these phone terrorists as well? A fantastic class action suit awaits a great attorney team on this one, because it appears that neither Federal nor State authorities give a damn to protect us and openly permit the phone companies to continually profit from your life being interrupted. I use a Panasonic KX-TG6844 phone that can block 250 numbers. The cost of $111 pays for itself if you use Verizon’s Call Intercept service (a $9.99 per month ransom plus federal and local taxes) in a year and you can drop the Verizon intercept service.
Contact the Consumer Union (Consumer Reports) site www.EndRobocalls.org and sign their petition to pressure the phone companies and lobby the government. It won’t cost you a cent! BTW, recent news articles (early July 2015) indicate Verizon is going to screw us more during their attempt to deregulate communications services and fees which could cost us more by buying into their anonymous call intercept useless service, etc.
They called yesterday with the caller ID "Golden Life" Could be insurance; could be a Chinese restaurant - who knows? I didn't bother picking up. Then I came here to check out the number and saw the first post indicating it was some sort of insurance scam. Went straight to the "Do Not Call" website to add my number (again!) to the list.
Well, when they called earlier today I picked up the phone, then immediately disconnected without listening or saying a word. They just called back. I picked up, said "Hello?" and the rep,
"Karen Abrams" asked for me, by name, (wtf?) then started her ramble about the high cost funeral expenses, and insurance plans to help, yada yada ...". I politely and quick told her I wasn't interested, and hung up.
Hopefully they won't call again. But I'm sure they will.
who ever this person is should be reported to the police.Was it those blanking kids(i would say the other word but im online rigth now)those kids who prank call need a damn life dont waste my time with there bull****.
Kids have been pranking since before Christ. Its a bad part of growing up but they get over it. At this time of massive scamming and criminal activity, it would be good if they would mature and get over it sooner.
