The give-away that this was a robo-call was the extended pause between when I picked up the call and the start of the message. The message was spoken by a "cultured" white male voice, that said "Hello". A comment at another call reporting site indicated that this was a "senior phishing" operation.
This number has turned up some odd companies that seem to have used it, or even are still using it: Primera Clase Taxi of Lowell, MA, and Empire Astoria Electric Co., New York, in Astoria, N.Y. Another check on this number brought up the location Woodside, N.Y. -- no name of a company, though.
Is it too much to think that if a call comes in to you that if you do not recognize at least the telephone number on a caller I.D., especially if it is not with an area code that you may be familiar with, that it is a call not worth answering? If it really is someone you wish to speak with then they would be (one would hope) courteous enough to leave a message & then you could within due course, return their call. The DNC is absolutely worthless as many of these "spam" calls originate from overseas where the DNC has no "reach"....& for all intents & purposes the DNC is a government agency that does not want to "grasp" the concept anyway. Think smart...that's why you have a brain, after all!
I've been getting calls everyday for a week and the caller ID to this number is Clase P. I never answered iy, But tonight I called it and a woman answered and first said it was a car service in New York, then said it must be a mistake because she never called, and then said its another service that must be using the wrong number. Nothing she said made sense.
