Decided to answer, though I don't usually & I do have the Panasonic phone with number blocking.  It was telling of an AARP  meeting at a local Sr. Center on how to avoid scam of Seniors.  Also said there would be a shredding truck there for free shredding of documents (that is a great service), but unfortunately previous Dr. Appointments will keep me from attending.  This was from Texas AARP.  

They're still at it - what a bunch of creeps!

Keep getting messages saying I have a virus on the computer.  I just don't answer any more.  Is this a scam or what??

Thanks,

Shirley

Message on CID about holding a "Town Hall Meeting" on my Medicare or some other BS. I deleted it before I listened to it all because I find so many senior scams on my phone. Thank you AARP for making my answering machine such a pain.

AARP - pre recorded message telling me to stay on the line for a "town hall meeting" or something along those lines. I hung up. Very bizarre!

I ask them to stop calling this number. DAILY I GET THEM!

These people call too often and at inconvenient times of the day. They should stop.

AARP robocall inviting members to participate in a "Town Hall Meeting" information session regarding the new health care laws and how our families will benefit.
healthlawanswers.org.

Keep getting calls from idiots all day long.  Never answer the phone anymore.

AARP calling every day. just want it to stop.

AARP political call, referencing supposed danger to the Social Security system

got a call on 8-28-12 at 10:15 am, but the caller ID shows toll free number, so we just hang up on them. If this is a legitimate call from aarp, they should show aarp on the caller ID. We do not answer phone surveys, so if they want a survey they can send a paper request.

Yes. I understand that. But now they are calling and pretending to be a call from
political organizations, charities, and telephone surveyors. Then they throw their
telemarketing skills at you. I don't feel that is right.

we keep getting calls from this number even though we are on a do not call list

Rec'd call, no message AND  no caller ID at all.  I wouldn't have know that this is
  AARP soliciting political support for an issue unless I click Google to trace this call.

Thanks to "Who calls me".... No thanks to AARP!!

I called AARP to tell them they are being spoofed because someone keeps calling me and displaying their toll free number.

I thought to myself, 'AARP would never call me and display as UNAVAILABLE or UNKNOWN NAME because AARP knows that this is exactly the type of behavior that is exhibited by spammers, spoofers, phishers and pharmers. I mean, AARP is a leader in educating seniors about the dangers of exactly that type of identity theft. Furthermore, AARP knows their membership consists of seniors who may have health issues that may cause them to sleep during the day so AARP would NEVER risk waking us up with unsolicited telephone calls that appear to be coming from someone pretending to be AARP."

So I called to warn AARP that someone was spoofing their members by pretending to be AARP and lo and behold, I learned that the robocalls are legitimate. It is AARP's Grassroots America initiative with another 'survey' about social security and medicare because they want to be sure 'our voices are being heard'. Well, my views haven't changed since the last six surveys, I hope SS and Medicare will still be there after paying into it all these years.

I spoke with a sweetheart named Rita who promised to take my number off their calling list. Just call 888-687-2277, press 0 to speak with a representative.

I am on the do not call list yet these idiots keeps calling.

do not call- do not want to hear from you -i would call if i needed to talk to aarp!!

It's A1-888 number just call them 5 or 6 times a hour and ask them to stop its fun

I like these kinds of calls? What, Why, because I have a Digitone Call Blocker. My phone doesn't even ring, this Blocker hangs up on them first. It also keeps a list of all calls that we blocked, you need to buy one of these too.

All auto insurance companies, including AARP, Geico, Liberty Auto Insurance, and all others, call from my work phone, (408) 882-2761, and it needs to stop. I want to be placed on the DO NOT CALL list.

This number has called us  for the last 4 days.  No message.  Just an "unknown" number!  Cannot understand why we get so many of these calls as we do not answer, never will answer and will soon drop our land line in self defense from these calls.

This number calls 3-4 times daily. Please stop.

It is AARP.  Automated surgery that asks five questions about Social Security and Medicare.  Using your phone key pad to answer your response.

thie call id from AARP they wanted  me to do some dumb survey.  I called back and asked to be removed from the calling list and the guy said this was the first time he had heard of AARP calling people, then he put me on hold for 5 minutes.

It's AARP pitching their wares or political messages.  If you are a member of AARP, under the Do Not Call rules, they are allowed to contact you unless you request them not to.  If you call the number back, you can say "representative" and have them remove your phone number and do not call.  I did this and so far it has worked.

Unwanted. AARP should know better. I'm on the NO CALL LIST. Perhaps you could review its status.

I am a member of AARP.  I don't answer numbers I don't recognize. When I go to the AARP website, particularly to read the daily bulletins,  I always get a page first advertising a free quote on Auto/Home, etc insurance through the Hartford...which I already have. I have to delete this page (which will not delete until the entire ad page comes up!!)  So, I thank the other people on this list for the info--esp. about the lobbying.

Calls every week or so.  Never leaves a message.  Identified as "Toll Free".

me too.. I keep getting calls from AARP also.. I do not answer normally...but when I do.. line goes to silence for about 60 seconds then plays a recording which is deleted on the fly.  

Interesting how AARP feels immune from complaints against them.. and thinks they have some sort of right to destroy the quiet enjoyment of my  home by calling.

of course, AARP sees itself as another legitimate beltway organization.. and as such.. like the others.. is ran for the benefit of those that run it.

But as a self-proclaimed senior lobby, they sold out.. why?  they get more money from US Government to study issues of the aged for the Govt than they take in in memberships.  So they readily sell out or face grant monies vanishing. So, they are as any other lobby group... feeding at the public trough.. they "w***e themselves out"  routinely.. it's just good business for them.  Sons of Bushes all.
