Rec'd call. Said they are sending me a medical device. I said I didn't order, but caller kept talking over me. Said it was paid for. Also on do not call list. I hung up.
Received phone call this morning with recording saying senior citizens were eligible to receive free medical alert devices. I hung up before the message was complete. This is a scam and the scammers have now spoofed a different phone number, this time from St. Charles, MO. A couple of months ago, I was getting the same calls from the KC, MO area using area code 816. The only reason I even answered the call was because I have a lot of friends who call from the same area code.
Don't press any buttons to speak to someone or remove your number from their list - they will know they've reached a valid phone number. Then they will start with the high-pressure sales pitch. Just hang up.
I keep getting calls from this number that sound like someone confirming a life alert order and saying that it is being shipped to my house. The person doesn't respond to me talking and continues to talk as if it is a recording. A few months ago the same place called and I answered and got someone to talk to me and I told them never to call again or I was calling the police and I hung up. They called again tonight!
I just got the first call from these scammers since they changed their number. I can't block them by name because it just comes up 'out of area'. So I'll just add this new number to my blocked list.
