These unwanted calls are really getting to me. I am going to purchase Digitone Call Blocker machine, runs $92.95 plus shipping.
They have a web site. You can also view a video on you tube showing how it works .
For the moment my out going answering machine say IF YOU ARE A TELEMARKETER HANG UP NOW
After getting 1 - 6 SPAM calls DAILY, we just had 3 blessed weeks with NONE of these calls.
Then, Unfortunately, Yesterday (4/29) they started up again. Got 3 calls from three different numbers within 24 hours; TWO said "MICHIGAN CALL" (this one) or "MICHIGAN CALLER" 989-462-0241 and the other said "CALIFORNIA" from 949-933-2545. I've seen other posts with ALL THREE of these numbers. All came in on the SAME phone line, and with same MO - a HANGUP before the machine can pick up.
The "989-462-0241" is listed with Mr.Number as AN INVALID NUMBER (likely SPOOFED) and THEREFORE, AUTOMATICALLY SPAM and a LIKELY SCAM. That makes the OTHER "MICHIGAN" call likely a SCAM, too, and lets just assume the CALIFORNIA one is, also.
In light of the events in BOSTON these past weeks (MARATHON BOMBING) I think its time the FBI and CIA got involved in INVESTIGATING these calls to see if they are part of FUNDING TERRORISM. At BEST they are CRIMINAL anyway; at worst, they could be SCAMMING DUMB and NAIVE AMERICANS into FUNDING the ACTS OF VIOLENCE against them!
I didn't answer either. Tried calling back, busy signal. Got a letter from Michigan Disabled and Paralyzed Veterans Fund asking for a donation. Both look like scams.
I keep getting calls from Michigan Call 810-224-5028. I have never answered so they call at least once a day & sometimes twice. they want for my answering machine to pick up then they hang up. I am supposedly on the do not call registry yet I getting a minimum of 30 calls per week from unsolicited callers. I keep asking to be removed from lists all to no avail. PLEASE isn't there something that can be done about places like Michigan Call Center?
Like the rest of you, I get multiple calls a day from these clowns. Normally, they won't leave a message but the other day, a message was left on my machine and it was obscene. It was only about 5 seconds long and it was a woman making noises as if she was in the throws of passion. I must admit, it was the most interesting telemarketing message I've ever received.
