| Michael 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
I had asked what car they were talking about and they hung-up on me... I get at least two calls a week from this number...
| who is this?? 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
They didn't leave a message, but the number called me two times
| Wiz 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
Got a call today as well. Did not pick up the phone.
| Kaitlin 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
I have gotten only one call from them, but after having several calls from numbers that I do not recognize (5 different ones) I had to look it up. They are calling from Compton, CA. The reverse directories don't give any more information than that. I can guarantee they just want to steal info for identity fraud. Report or ignore them is all I can tell you.
| Shawn 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
Get at least one call a day from 310 599 5756 about my factory warranty expiring on my car. It's always an automated message which I promptly hang up on. I now just hit ignore when I see this # come up on my cell phone.
| MH 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
Need to get a billing address for the caller, then submit an invoice for your time spent. Then, just let them talk
It's legal to do!
| Melissa 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |

Me: hangs up, why did I even answer!
| Jenn 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
Another call...another missed warranty opportunity. I wish I could get this call because let me tell all of you how interested I am in this service! I was supposed to be on the DO NOT CALL LIST but they DON'T CARE! What a fun and rewarding job they must have...I hope they don't work on comission! HAHA!
| Tom 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
They are now contacting Government Issued phones for the Emergency Medical Service here in central Florida. These phones are for restricted use only and they are in violation of Local and State Law. The gentleman "Jordan" that I spoke with was quick to hang up on me immediately after I gave him my title and whom I worked for. I have spoke with the BBB and also local officials here. Unfortunately as of yet nothing can be done to stop them from calling. This is happening to everyone in my organization at least 3 times a week. I hope someone finds these people and let them have what is coming to them
| Jim 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
Why are they calling my Cell phone
| Bruce 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
They have been calling me over the last week. I spoke with some guy who asked me for the make and model of my car. I said "You called me, why don't you tell me what car I am driving?" They said good bye then hung up.
| tsd 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
These idiots call my home phone, cell phone and even my work phone about a warranty for a car that I have not owned for the past 5 months.
| Trey 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
Yeah, I'm from La. These guys have been calling my cell about every other day or so. The guy who answered the phone was "Johnathan." He pretended to rattle off some legal disclaimer that he purposely mumbled through (I made him repeat it). I'm about to turn them in here in a few minutes...
| ACK! This is making me crazy! 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
I get these at home and on my work cell phone. My husband gets them too. does anyone know how to get them to stop. I've heard that if you press 1 they still won't take you off the list. I get at least 1 call every day.
| cock 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |

| Javed Alam 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |

| Schneider 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
I have an emergency cell phone and they called me when I was teaching. Then when I asked where they got my phone number they hung up. What can I do?
| David 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
Did a search and they are in Compton, Ca. Don't want to pay $15 for more search details.
| Mark 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
I keep getting these calls, "final notice on car warranty expiring", if you play along, I tell a live person to knock it off and remove me but they persist.
| TF 2011-06-06 20:45:24 Unknown |
Yep, they call my cell regularly too. I recognize the 310 area code and of course don't answer. But they should be shut down.

Subject: FTC sues cos. to halt auto warranty 'robo-calls'
Sent from Express Stocks
WASHINGTON - Federal regulators filed suits Thursday against several companies
they say are behind a national wave of spam "robo-calls" that warn people their
auto warranties are expiring and offer new service plans.
Federal Trade Commission officials said they asked a federal court in Chicago to
halt the illegal telemarketing campaign of "Your Car Warranty Has Expired."
Officials say as many as 1 billion of the nuisance calls have been made to
Americans.
The FTC named Voice Touch Inc. and Transcontinental Warranty Inc., which it
called the telemarketer and promoter of the scheme, respectively, in the
lawsuits. The agency is seeking injunctions forcing them to return allegedly
ill-gotten gains.
FTC Chairman Jon Leibowitz called it "one of the most aggressive" telemarketing
schemes the agency has ever seen.
"I'm not sure which is worse, the abusive telemarketing tactics of these
companies, or the way they try to deceive people once they get them on the
phone," Leibowitz said. "Either way, we intend to shut them down."
It took some heavy sleuthing to determine what companies were responsible since
they made "extraordinary" efforts to conceal their identities by masking their
true phone numbers, he said. Such concealment by telemarketers is illegal, as is
refusal to promptly identify themselves to consumers.
If a consumer received such a call about his car warranty, "there's a very real
chance that these guys did it," Leibowitz told reporters in a conference call.
Representatives from Voice Touch and Transcontinental Warranty couldn't be
reached for comment Thursday afternoon.
While seeking return of allegedly illegal profits from the companies, the FTC
isn't immediately seeking civil fines against them but may consider doing so
later on, agency officials said.
Attorneys general in Arkansas, Indiana and Missouri have taken similar actions
over the calls offering deals on extended warranties, which have brought about
300,000 inquiries and 4,000 complaints to the Better Business Bureau from
consumers over the past two years. The calls come even if the consumer has
signed up for the national "Do Not Call" registry, which is maintained by the
FTC.
The calls target people regardless of whether they have warranties or even own
cars. They call numbers randomly and leave messages with a computerized voice
telling people, falsely, that their auto warranties are about to expire,
regulators say.
The telemarketers are misrepresenting service contracts - which consumers have
to pay for - as warranties, which are included in the price of buying a vehicle,
the FTC says.
"Out of warranty? You are still eligible to reactivate warranty coverage. This
is the final call before we close the file." The recording typically gives the
caller an option to stop receiving calls, but they continue to come even if
consumers opt out.
"This is where you're told to push No. 1 to speak to a representative, or push
No. 2 to be removed from the list. I've pushed that No. 2 button so many times
from their calls, I've broken two phones!" said Craig Michie of Las Vegas.
"I've been faced with these calls for years," Michie said by telephone on
Tuesday. "I would attempt to talk to the telemarketers and ask them not to call.
They only called back."
If people call back and agree to buy policies, the companies often don't let
them see the contracts until they agree to pay. And some people don't learn
until they've spent thousands of dollars that the deals don't cover many types
of repairs, according to regulators.
In addition, the computerized calls can eat up a consumer's cell phone minutes,
possibly jacking up phone charges, Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., said earlier
this week. He had previously asked for an investigation by the FTC into what he
called a scam of "robo-dialer harassment."

this number/company has me on auto dial and I get acall from them every day, no idea what about as when I pick up it says press one to be removed from the list. I press one and I am disconnected. My caller id picks up the number and the company name is listed as "no use".

They keep telling me that my warranty has expired.
