Some Robocall I've gotten before about the FBI reporting that a breakin happnes every 15 minuts or soemthing like that. Hung up before it got to the point. It's bad enough on my landline but now they've called my cell phone - they cost me a minute!

Just got a call on my work number. Answered it. A robo call asking to put a security sign in our yard to help make the neighborhood safe. I hung up, probably a scam security company trying to get access to peoples homes to rob them. (just my thoughts).
| Edd 2014-01-14 19:50:00 Unknown |
Mine started talking about home breakins every 10 seconds...hung up, this is the second time this week I've gotten the call...
| sick_n_tired 2013-12-18 15:53:26 Unknown |
Thanks for the very helpful info!
| Jimmy 2013-12-13 21:16:33 Unknown |
Careful... I received this call with no message... Funny thing is I have not owned a car for the last 27 years
| TrekBicycle29 2013-12-10 14:25:38 Unknown |
Got this number AGAIN. They called my Text Now number, but I don't have the Voicemail option activated, so they wouldn't have been able to leave one, anyways. Now I'm gonna block this on my VP.

Auto message claiming to be FBI and will install security system on home etc. I am on Do Not Call (DNC.gov) list. I told them to remove my ph.# I find it peculiar that they call my Magic Jack phone. I've never received a telemarkt call on this phone before in 5 yrs. ever.
| Catherine 2013-12-02 18:26:31 Telemarketer |
Made the unfortunate mistake of answering this call to my office phone. It was a recorded message about home break ins and an offer to receive a home security system at no cost. The recording offered an option to be added to their do not call list, which I didn't choose for fear it would have the opposite effect.
| TrekBicycle29 2013-11-28 03:37:13 Unknown |
Got this number calling my cell phone earlier today, and I declined the call and placed it on my block list. Since then, I've not gotten any further calls. And I can't drive, anyways, so nice try.
| Kyle 2013-11-19 22:53:23 Telemarketer |
Robo call about placing an alarm system sign in my yard will give me a free alarm system. Call starts out saying "the FBI gets so many reports a year..." Press 1 to continue and Press 9 to be added to the do not call list. My fear is now they know my number is legit and therefore will continue to call but from a different number.

Let it go to VM, but they never left a message. Funny - I have an exteneded warranty on my car
| G. May 2013-10-27 17:03:25 Telemarketer |
Got a call on my cell phone from this number. Very few people have my cell number. I let it go to voice mail. Listened to the message. It sounded as if someone was calling from a car phone. Probably a scammer.
| bob 2013-10-26 20:35:20 Unknown |
Hackers using the warranty expired to get info from users.....this the 5th time they try my number n I dnt answer.....I dnt even have a vehicle
| Lin 2013-10-25 17:19:31 Unknown |
I got a call from this number on my cell phone. Didn't recognize it so I didn't answer. As previous reporters have stated, they tell me my vehicle warranty is expired. Funny, I don't own a car!
| Johnny 2013-10-25 15:05:25 Telemarketer |
I got this message/call yesterday. And as usually I didn't answer it nor did I open my voice mail to listen to the message they left (if any).
| Don 2013-10-25 10:50:10 Unknown |
It's a scam, I still have full new vehicle coverage until Aug. 2014 plus gap insurance until the loan is paid in full.
| SM 2013-10-25 00:13:20 Unknown |
LOL I KNOW whenever they leave it voicemail its so weird
| SM 2013-10-25 00:12:34 Unknown |
What was really funny was the robo-caller left me a voicemail that sounded like a fart.
Yes they have called me several times about this auto warranty whatever................I DONT EVEN OWN A VEHICLE!!!!!!!!

PEOPLE. PLEASE READ THE COMMENTS BEFORE POSTING!!!
YOU MAY THINK THAT SOMEONE IS CALLING YOUR SPECIFIC PHONE NUMBER.
THEY DID NOT. THEY DID NOT CALL YOUR NUMBER SPECIFICALLY.
YOU WERE RANDOMLY "ROBO" CALLED WITH A SPOOFED PHONE NUMBER ON A CALLER ID FOR A SCAM COMPANY.
Important message to all those that have received a call from this number:
There are several companies engaged in scam business using auto dialers. They are ALL scam outfits. They spoof phone numbers of victims all the time. Sometimes, they spoof non-working phone numbers. The phone number you searched for is just another victim of these scumbags. I've done a lot of research of these companies. Actually, there are several affiliated companies, that try to scam innocent victims. They are either owned by the same people, or they sell their business model to other crooks.
One scam is about auto warranties. The other is about credit card debt relief. They even have scams about dish television, home alarms, carpet cleaning, political surveys, free cruises, and more. Their MO is the same. The use an auto dialer, and call thousands of random numbers. They have no regard to the do not call lists. Your demands or complaints to them are worthless. They will continue to call you.
They will not remove you from their call lists. Why? BECAUSE THEY DO NOT MAINTAIN ANY. THEY ARE CROOKS. THEY HAVE NO REGARD TO THE MANY LAWS THEY BREAK.
BEING ROBO CALLED BY A COMPUTER IS A FEDERAL CRIME. NEED WE SAY MORE?
If they call about a car warranty, the message says something as "This is the second notice on your extended vehicle warranty. Press one now to speak to a representative..." The message about credit debt mentions "This is Account Services. We are calling to lower your credit card debt. Press one now to speak to a representative..." or "The is an important call from your cardmember services. This is your Final Notice. We have been trying to contact you?." The message about carpet cleaning begins "This is Diane, would like your carpet professionally steamed cleaned?"
These crooks can be beaten! Here is an example of what happens if ALL OF US contribute to taking them down by following the steps below:
http://www.justice.gov/usao/gan/press/2012/02-09-12.html
So, now you want to get these crooks. WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT THIS? If you want to stop these crooks do the following:
:
1) You need to speak to one of their customer service representatives. Pretend to be interested in either lowering your credit card interest rate or a car warranty, having your carpets cleaned, etc. DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY REAL INFORMATION. Do not ask how they "got" you number. (Remember, your number was randomly dialed by a computer)
Tell them you have $20,000 in credit card debt. Give them a fake credit card number, a fake name, and a fake SS#. If the call is about the auto warranty scam, tell them you own a Ferrari, or a 1937 Dodge (however, if you really own one of those two, tell them you own a Buick). Give a made up VIN number. Or tell them you have 15 rooms of beautiful plush wall to wall carpet. If they ask for your name and phone number, give them the info for the person you hate the most.
Your goal is simple. You want to engage them in friendly conversation to keep them on the phone for as long as possible. Be nice and friendly. Your goal is twofold. You want to learn as much as possible about them. They will refuse to give you a website, phone number, or maybe even a real company name. They will attempt to give you a generic name such as "Account Services," "Financial Services," or "Dealer Services." This is done for a reason, to throw you and the government off their tracks. Do not accept this. Keep pressing for info during casual conversation. You will need this (see below). Often when pressed for questions, they will hang up on you. Remember, they are instructed to do this. That is why you must not be confrontational. Be friendly and act as if you are genuinely interested.
Get the name of the company, and if you can, the city where they are located. Most of these scam companies are either in Florida, or in the Atlanta, Georgia area.
EVEN BETTER IS IF YOU CAN RECORD THE CALL.
Also, the time you take from them means them have less time to steal from someone who is unknowledgeable about their scams. They get paid to rip people off. Take away their time, and they make no money! I have kept them on the phone for up to 20 minutes! I realize that many of you do not have the time. But do you appreciate being taken advantage of?
Ever hear of Scambaiting? That is what you are doing!!! There are many entertaining web sites on this topic. For example, see:
http://www.419eater.com.
2) Get the details of these scumbags and post it on this and every other website you can find. Use only the information you get from talking from their representatives and information you get from public sources. DO NOT POST THE NAME AND ADDRESS OF THE PERSON THAT OWNS THE PHONE NUMBER ON YOUR CALLER ID. Their numbers were spoofed and they are victims.
3) YOU MUST REPORT THEM TO THE AUTHORITIES:
FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION!
Here is the link to file a complaint: http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm
FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION:
https://donotcall.gov/complaint/complaintcheck.aspx
You can also file a report with the Attorney General of your state. See the links below to see how effective this can be.
If everyone that received a call from these low-life scumbags does the same, then the combined action of thousands of us can stop these crooks from scamming innocent people out of money.
Additional information: This is what can happen if everyone were to complain!

Let me tell you how I helped defeat a former scam company. Versadebt, that changed its name to VP Marketing, was scamming victims for years. I found the name of their company through conversation with one of their stupid representatives. And not only did I report them to the FCC and FTC each time, I also posted their contact information on the internet to make it easier for everyone to report.
Here is a story from Fox 5 Atlanta - WAGA that tells how WE took down VP Marketing, just one scam operation. Over 100,000 complaints were received by the FTC:
http://www.myfoxatlanta.com/dpp/news/i-team:-vp-marketing-sued-021710
If you get the name of the company, here is how you can find their information if located in Georgia, with the search engine of the Georgia Department of State:
http://corp.sos.state.ga.us/corp/soskb/CSearch.asp
For example looking up VP Marketing, the former scam outfit, we see that it is owned by Jason Eyer, the dirt bag shown in the Fox 5 video. Here is how you can contact this person, courtesy of public records filed with the Georgia Department of State:
Jason Eyer
1603 Mosaic Way
Smyrna, GA 30080
407-902-1950
407-902-9377
And here is the most satisfying evidence of how we can defeat and destroy these scumbag scammers:

Remember:
1) Be friendly and pretend to be interested
2) Try to get the name of the company
3) Research the name of the company using public records
4) Post the name of the company everywhere on the internet
4) Report them to the FCC, the FTC, and the state Attorney General's office

I got same call to warn me my car warranty is going to expire.
| John Dize 2013-10-24 19:18:12 Unknown |
don't call anymore
| Robin Ketron 2013-10-24 18:35:49 Unknown |
I called this number back to see who it was.... had prompts for me to talk with representative.... then it went straight to voice mail......
| gary? 2013-10-24 18:11:17 Unknown |
I got this call and after my phone stopped ringing i set it to go straight to voicemail...end of problem and no more calls. Try it...they wont leave a message. If you call them back they put you on a ''customer called to inquire about their offerings and it legitametly puts you on their call list so they will keep calling or pass it out to other scammers legally. So dont call any of these calls back...its their way of going around the system...just saying.
