I am so angry right now  because I have been receiving these phone calls from this scam diabetic association from over a months now. Twice  a day. I said everything "not to call me, that the owner does not living here anymore", I am not a diabetic", and now I just get angry and starting yelling to them and threating to sue them. The next day someone else with an indian accent will call me back like nothing happened.
What to do to stop these annoying phone calls. These people are shameless and do not care.
The phone calls are so annoying because they usually call me 10 am  5:00 pm and 9;30 pm imagine every single day.
I do hope that BBB do something to stop this.

Add another number to the numbers from which they are calling--954-429-6735.  The address associated with this number is 12th Avenue, Pompano Beach, Florida 33060.  Am finding complaints for this phone number identical to the other three numbers.  The other two numbers, again, are 877-506-9633 and 701-920-9511.

Have received calls from this group every day for the past three months.  One of the callers appears to be Indian (from India) according to his dialect.  Have also spoken numerous times with a woman who's accent pinpoints her as either black or from one of the southern states.  Both have called more than once and each time, been told not to call back.

We reported them to the phone company after find we were unable to block them.  She has instructed us to file a police report.  Check your local elder abuse laws.  This potentially constitutes elder abuse through the harassment involved in the multiple calls.  You may be able to pursue them that way.  

There are two websites.  Both use the same phone number, which is identified as linking to an address in Inglewood, CA.  The address is not a valid address.  It belongs to the Foot and Ankle Institute.  

This corporation was registered with the state of California, which state suspended the corporation.  Address and phone to the corporation links back to the Inglewood Corporation.  They also appear to be operating out of Florida and Hawaii.  

They got our number after my husband clicked on a link on Facebook for free game coins for a game he is playing.  We are both in our late 60s and he is not computer savy.  If anybody else has the same experience, I would like to know.

They called - I let it go to answering machine - they did not leave any message.

If you call the telemarketers back, they are then free to call you without repercussions from the Federal government UNLESS you tell them to take your name and number off their list.

I've been receiving numerous telemarketing calls to my phone, which is registered with the Government's Do Not Call List, and also telemarketing text messages.  You must keep a log of the number, date, and time of the call.  If they persist in calling past the 30 days grace period after you tell them to stop, they should be reported to the DoNotCall Registry - http://www.DoNotCall.gov - and they can be fined up to $11,000 per violation once reported.  You must provide as much information as possible - who called you, dates, times, telephone numbers, what it was about, etc. for the Feds to be able to prosecute and fine.

Telemarketers are governed by Federal laws requiring them to only call during certain hours ( 8 am to 9 pm in whatever your time zone is) and requiring them to NOT call if you tell them to remove your name and number from their list.

For complete information from the FCC regarding telemarketing, see:
http://hraunfoss.fcc.gov/edocs_public/attachmatch/FCC-03-153A1.pdf
Go to page 130 for a summary of the rules - all the preceding gives a great deal of information, but the summary gives you the gist of the final rules.

If telemarketers violate, report them to the DoNotCall registry - https://complaints.donotcall.gov/complaint/complaintcheck.aspx?panel=2

It is also highly recommended that you list with your state's Do Not Call Registry as well, as the Federal registry does not govern telemarketing calls which happen within the same state.


Hope this helps

Called for a "Mr." and my wife's maiden name. Instant indication that it's not something legitimate.

Told the caller there was no such person there. He said, ok, while I have you on the phone, is there anyone in your household with diabetes? I said, yes, let me get him.

Then I put the phone down and went back to work. He sat on hold for about five minutes before hanging up.

This way, I'm wasting the scammer's time and money, and at least while he's on my phone, he's not bothering anyone else.

We are on the do not call list & atarting to get these odd calls. I hear dnothing asked who they were 3 x & finally got a comp. message saying thank you

I doubt very much that these scam artist are from the American diabetes association  

(if  you have a fax in your pc) turn it on  these callers for several days.... gets rid of 99.9999% of these scam callers since they use an automated joint  predictor dialer after three straight fax hits your number is removed until they sell it  to another company repeat as many times as you need....  (it's kind like spraying harmful bugs with DDT)

This number keeps showing up on my caller ID.  I looked at other sites. Most say the same thing about the noice ... Others say they don't seem to speak english ... They say they are from the Diabities foundation and want medicare and/or insurance information.

Update:  Just called that number back blocking my #.  Got an answer stating that I had reached "The National Diabetes Association".

(Forgot to say that the call I got today was at 2:30 pm EDT; and, the first call came in on June 21, 2011 at 6:11 pm EDT.)

(Got a phone call last week and again today.  Since I have Caller ID, I did not answer their calls.  It just shows that the calls are from California and they did not leave any messages.)

My elderly mother rec'd a call from this number today offering her free diabetes supplies. Asked for all her insurance information, including her social security number, which she started to give when I ripped the phone from her hands and told the woman we'd call her back. She said "Um, no, I'll call you back." I told her I knew this was a scam and hung up.

Called at 1:11 pm EDT, listed as California Call, I did not answer, and no message was left.  I've been receiving quite a few of these calls from various locations, and my number has been on the Do Not Call list for years - I've even registered both my land line and cell line 3 times.  I'm so glad to have found this website, now I check every unknown call!

Lady called couldn't pronounce my name. I didn't say anything but hello then I started to crack up.......... called them back a pressed 9 to get off the database list now I'm probably going to get a bunch of calls from diferant scams and they'll sell my number.... Why would they take advantage of people with diabetes.... what jack@$$'s.

I received a call from this number.  The lady with the accent asked if I had diabetes.  I said no.  She then asked if I knew anyone who had diabetes. I told her of course I did - afterall most of us know someone who has it.  She then asked for my friends names and telephone numbers so she could call them.  I said, "I don't give my friends names and numbers out" and hung up.

THEY CALLED TODAY AND I SAID HELLO LIKE MAYBE 5 TIMES AND ALL I HEARD IN THE BACK GROUND WAS MUSIC LIKE SOMEONE WAS AT A PARTY OR SOMETHING....

Received phone call from 559 302 9128.
They asked for someone in my family who didn't even live here.  Did not speak English very well. When I phoned the number back they claimed to be the National Diabetes Association.

Did not leave a message. Calls often.

called today, i didn't answer.  no message left.  thank you, all, for posting this number - this website really helps!

I get calls from this number at least 2 times a week. Only comes up at CA Call on my caller ID. Yet another phone number to report to the FTC.

Don't just complain, take action. Report them to the FTC here https://complaints.donotcall.gov/complaint/complaintcheck.aspx

Not true. The FTC cancelled the 5-yr expiration. DNC is now permanent.

How does the National Do Not Call Registry work?

The law requires telemarketers to search the registry every 31 days and avoid calling any phone numbers that are on the registry. If you receive telemarketing calls after you have registered your telephone number and it has been in the registry for 31 days, you can file a complaint at donotcall.gov or by calling toll-free 1-888-382-1222 (TTY: 1-866-290-4236). You will have to know the date of the call and the company?s name or phone number to file a do not call complaint. A telemarketer who disregards the National Do Not Call Registry could be fined up to $16,000 for each call.

Telephone numbers on the registry will only be removed when they are disconnected and reassigned, or when the consumer chooses to remove a number from the registry.

Asked for me by name.  STRONG accent.  Could hardly understand what he was saying.  Claimed to be from some diabetes organization.  Started asking medical questions.  When I said I did not have diabetes, he asked if I knew someone with diabetes.  When I said "no" he hung up.  He never got to the real reason for his call.  I assume he was trying to sell something or scam me.

I ask them for an access code. Resonse is confused. I remain Quiet.

Not true. DNC list is only for five years as previous poster said.

I have recieved 15 or 20 calls from this person speaks in spanish and will not stop talking no matter what I say.

Received call from this number and the person had a very thick foreign accent.  I goofed around with some crazy sounding language and the call was terminated, quickly.
.
