peddling that same senior alert scam as the guys FTC recently busted down in Florida
http://www.ftc.gov/news-events/press-releases ... -used-robocalls
I filled out dozens of FCC complaints at the DoNotCall site on them
wrote my congressman and senators
and it appears to have finally worked
this turkey said he's calling from NYC though the caller id says California Call
so I informed him:
" it's a federal offense to make a call with spoofed caller id, $10,000 per call, and i got the guys in Florida busted by the feds. If you dont believe me just google Michael Hilgar Florida , so hang on to your [***] i'm gonna have it too. That name i want you to google is H-I-L-G-A-R and i'll see you in court . Tell your employer. So long. "
Will see if it works after a few more calls.
If anybody knows somebody who works there - please post whereabouts. I sent FBI and FCC and FTC and a local TV station Hilgar's physical address in Altamonte Fla, and i suspect these guys took over his operation. .
Called 6-27-14; did not leave a message. Had the same call from different number-same alert system and $3,000 coupons for groceries. No mention of AARP I believe first call was from Flordia earlier this month.
On 6/17 a message was on answer machine saying "Alert Seniors" It went on to say we would be given an alert system and it was free. We were also going to receive $3,000 of food coupons. Message said to press 1 to accept. Male speaker also said our "provider" will be paying for these items. ST was in the caller ID.
Previously we've been called at least 9 times w/a recorded message about the "Alert System". Each of those calls had
the number 917-398-9352 and NY in the caller ID.
