Got a call from this number two days ago, but no message was left. Suspect either spam or scam. Caller ID says "NEW CO". Blocked in phone & filed with NDNCR @ https://complaints.donotcall.gov/complaint/complaintcheck.aspx?panel=2
They call me at least twice a da and will not stop!! Soo freakin tired of these people! I don't answer calls that I don't recognize the number for.. if you don't leave a message and you call back i'm really not going to answer.
I've received two calls so far this week from this number..... supposedly in Gresham, OR..... but I suspect that it's a hacked number and being dialed by al Quaida operatives on their satellite phone from a cave somewhere in the middle east (judging by the accent, of course). Well, personally speaking, I don't want a security system that has been installed by terrorists. Who knows, the folks that they send to put it in might be a sleeper cell, or worse yet the wiring that they install within your home's walls might actually be a receiver that incapsulates you, and over time they can program and control you, enabling them to sit back and have you do their dirty work. Who wants that? Not me, that's for sure!
If they are calling your cell, request that your cell carrier block the number. As far as FTC, Do Not Call lists prevent legitimate businesses from calling those registered- which doesn't, unfortunately, apply to scammers.
If you wish you can report repeated calls as harassing with local police... if there are enough reports, the benefit is often a news report- so the general public is aware to simply not reply/answer.
These skeezes often switch numbers, so I make it a simple rule of thumb to never answer calls from numbers I dont recognize.
