Name portion of the caller id said: Unassigned. I didn't pick up because I don't know anyone with that area code. The call came in 10/14/16 at 1:27pm. Though I didn't pick up the phone, I have rcvd phone calls from other numbers calling about an ad "I' have seen on tv ... how they hell do they know what ad I've seen on tv? ... I don't have cable. I have not continue to listen & just hung up. If it's a medicare scam, I don't get medicare. I am in the age group to deal w/medicare, I don't get it because I don't qualify. I think they have a list of people in that medicare age-eligible group.
I also received a call from this number, and did not pick up. I have also turned off my answering machine. With caller ID, I can see the number that called me, if I don't recognize it, I delete it. Telemarketing scammers have absolutely ruined the phone system in this country. I don't care what you, or the government, may try to do to stop it.........someone will always be willing to sell phone numbers to these people. All you can do is block the number, and don't answer the rest.
