(610) 609-2504 Robo call recorded 22 May 2017 ("John with Senior Care Authority, you may qualify to get a medical alert system...includes equipment cost and free shipping." HA!) SCAM

Caller ID: "Customer Servi[ce]"

A misleading robo call from "John with Senior Care Authority" claiming that due to my age I may qualify for a program to get a Medic Alert alarm, equipment already paid for. This is an automated voice recognition robo call, designed to sound like a live caller, but you can recognize quickly that it is not a live caller.

I tried to avoid saying 'yes' by using the phrase 'That is correct' in response. The bot was programmed specifically only to recognize explicit 'yes' and 'no' responses so I didn't pass the screening and it disconnected after an abrupt "alright, thanks".

Their "shotgun" approach to making mass phone calls, and their total disregard of the Do Not Call list certainly tells us a lot about their business ethic, doesn't it?

Here is a transcript of their unwanted, automated, voice recognition call:

"This call is now being recorded."

male voice: "Hello, this is John. I'm a medical alert system specialist on a recorded line. Can you hear me okay?"

me: "I can hear you."
they: "Are you over the age of 65?"

me: "That is correct."
they: "Great. I'm with Senior Care Authority and I show here that you are part of an age group that reports a high rate of falls, injuries and health issues. Now our records indicate that you may fall into the category the qualifies for one of our special programs that could get you a medical alert system. This program covers the cost of the equipment the activation fee and includes free shipping. Are you over the age of 65?"

me: "That is correct."
they: "Are you experiencing any other health issues that could affect your safety or your ability to live independently?"

me: "No."
they: "Do use a cane or walker?"

me: "No."
they: "Do you find yourself alone at home for long periods of time throughout the day?"

me: "No."
they: "Alright, thanks."
