Got a call from this number the caller id was a bunch of numbers not the phone number

I got a call from this number I didn't pick it thought would left a vm but nope. Its a Red Lodge MT number.

Got a couple of calls on my cell from this number.  No one ever there when I answer.  It says Red Lodge MT.

Recieve calls almost everyday,decided to answer on 10/19/10 from 406-426-3275, caller trying to sell health ins.
Asked to be removed from call list, caller hung up.
Recieved same call on 10/20/10 from 951-240-1397, asked to be removed again~caller hung up.

I get a call from this number at least once a week. I have my attorney looking into who owns the number and from there a polite letter will be sent asking caller to cease and desist.

This is Cello, Inc, a medical insurance brokerage firm in MT.  They are trying to sell medical insurance DISCOUNT policies, not full medical coverage plans with "A+" companies such as BCBS, Etna or United Healthcare.  More like Joe's DIscount Medical Plan.  The calls are piped thru Verizon and spoofed to show 406-426-3275, even though they are really coming in from all over the country.  They hire private citizens to work from their homes.  Because this company spoofs the phone numbers to hide the true callers identity and location, that caller cannot remove your phone number; only Cello, Inc. in MT can, so they just hang up rather than here us rant and rave to remove the number.  The caller has no idea what number or person they are soliciting to next as the auto-dialer is in MT and links to a work from home solicitor. After it connects, the name comes up on the screen as to who they are to ask for.  And it continues.....

When I get these "Spam" calls, which is more often than I like, I simply answer the phone and immediately hit the # sign on my keypad 7 or 8 times which ends up disconnecting the call. If this is a computer generated call this repetitive tone will confuse the system into thinking it is not a valid number and it will delete your number form their auto dial list.
If it is manually dialed it will irritate the caller as much as they irritate you and they probably will not try again (definitely Will stop after 2-3 times hearing the same response when answered.

Try it, You will like getting back at these telemarketers as much as I do!!!

i got a phone call from 4064263275 but he did not keep message. Then I try to call that number but everytime i saw it is disconnected. I dont understand why call and why disconnected.

call from insurance I am on do not call list

If you get the name and addy of the company from your lawyer, can you post it so we can file complaints with the Do Not Call Registry with their formal information?

Today was my 5th call. I waited for an operator, told him to take me off their list, told him I am on the Do Not Call registry and have filed complaints on their other calls. Take me off the list or I will be taking legal action....yep, he hung up.....

Had a few alls from this # finally someone spoke - I asked them not to call again

If this is "Cello, Inc.", there is no listing in Montana for any such company. Where did you get your information?

Sounds like you work for this outfit since you can give all the detail except where this company is actually located.

Apologies to Cher - There was a typo in that post.

I believe the company Cher mentioned was Cellco, not Cello, which was also the company name I got from the phone company when I called. It's a local phone company, not a health insurance scammer.

The health insurance outfit just uses the Cellco phone service.

Cellco Partnership,
Verizon
1619 Grand Avenue
Butte, MT 59701-4864

They claim to not be able to do anything about the abuse but said to call the national Do Not Call number and add your phone number to the list. I've done that years ago, but she tells me I have to do it again.

I called my phone company and they added a Call Block feature (I got a new bundled service and will save $24 a month so the call was worth it to me).

Dial *78 and choose Call Block, enter the number 406-426-3275 and you're good to go.

Who owns the number?

Got several too

This number has called me every day at the same time for a few days now. I'm slightly worried someone is trying to steal my Identity or something crazy like that. The first few times they called I tried to answer but received no response then each time at 11 seconds they hang up. I called back once and I listened to a recording saying the number is out of service. I called on a different phone number and received the same recording. Can anyone tell me what this is? A funny joke perhaps?

This number will not stop calling me! It's super aggravating! When I try to call back it gives me a busy signal and I never get a message. How do I get it to stop?

received two calls . something is up

Just received a call from that number for the second time. Reported it to the do not call list

I received calls from this number. Does not leave message & when try to return call (406-426-3275) always get busy signal.

I've recieved 2 calls and when I call back I get a message saying that it isn't a working number!

me too! Answered but no one says a thing..??

I saved the # with this contact name "DNA 101115".
This tells me Do Not Answer and the date of when they first called
I know it dosent fix the problem....but I now can monitor it

I got a call from it...here it was my doctor's corporate office i guess? the lady told me who she was and to talk to doctor so and so...i did and it was fine....it's weird.  I still think something is going on with this number though.  b/c once i was done, the number randomly starts calling back

there is a site called spoof.com that someone can put in any number then call you and when you think it's a friend or parent it's joe shmoe or whoever out of wherever ....from the boonies for all we know!

Just got one. call dropped 2 seconds in.

Just got a call from that number.  When I answered the line sounded dead.  When I called back recording that the number had been disconnected or is no longer in service....go figure...I have nothing better to do in my day than to get telephone calls that are from no one and from no where...

I have been receiving this off and on since the spring.  When you are actually able to answer the first thing you hear is "Are you one of the millions of americans without health insurance? blah blah blah".  If you have been online and asked for quotes for health insurance, this is how I have gotten on this number and I can't find out how to get my number off it.  I know the number now and I just don't answer it anymore.  I hit the silence button on my cell phone.  If anybody knows how to get them to stop calling, please do tell!!!!  It's quite annoying, and my number is on the federal no call list.

Got a call from this number as well. Same issues as everyone else. This isn't the only calls I get from numbers like this. We (as consumers) need better protection from phishers.

I just got a call from this same number.  If I do not recognize a number I do not answer it as it uses my minutes.  I called back after seeing the messages that were posted.  I also got the message that it was a disconnected number.  I put it in my reject call list so it will not bug me anymore.
