207-307-0462

Just got a call from them. I get a lot of these lately. It's really getting annoying.

Rang once and quit.  A Google search shows that it is not a valid number.  Scam.

I called the number. Its reward redemption telemarketing....

Got a ring and disconnected. scAm

Telemarketer called despite the fact that my number is on the USA national do not call registry and has been for three years.

After 10 pm calling. Rang 2 times hung up!! Woke up baby.

Cell Phone rang once and quit. Second time in the last seven days to receive a call from Area Code 207. Home & Cell numbers are on the Federal DO NOT CALL list.

[***] called me at 7am!!

Call hang up spam for sure never answer unknow numbers. Why can't the NSA find these [***] and send a drone up there ass. FCC worthless government piece of you know what so are all the phone carriers. I would pay extra taxes to hunt these folks down and .....

telemarketing -- is there a 'do not call' list for cell phones>

>> is there a 'do not call' list for cell phones  <<

Yes.  In fact there is a prohibition against cold-calling ANY cell phone, on or off the DNC list.

Modern technology has given telescammers the tools to call you.
Since those telescammers are criminals, they ignore both the Do Not Call list and any request you might make.

Modern technology can also protect you, if YOU do a few simple things!
The most effective thing to do is to get a call blocking device, service or app.
Then, use it correctly.

Google "call blocker" for more information, or visit Amazon or similar sales site.

If you cannot use or afford to buy such a tool, then:

• Do not answer calls from unknown numbers ... let them go to voicemail or answering service

• Do NOT return calls from unknown numbers!  All that does is verify your phone number!  And, in some cases, those return calls may cost $20 or more to complete.  

• If you have a "dumb" cell phone, assign the scammer's number to a group named "scam" (or similar).  Then, assign a silent ringtone to that group.

• Another option, for both smart and "dumb" cell phones:  Assign a "silent ringtone" as DEFAULT.  Then, assign your favorite ringtones to all known friends / family / business numbers.  That way, you will hear rings ONLY from those you wish to contact!  You will not hear scammers' rings, even if they change their number!  (This is also called "whitelisting").


If you want to report potential fraudulent or scam calls, here are two pages of links to (mostly government) sites in Canada and the USA were you can report those scams, or learn more about them.

I find that once I have applied or put my resume out on line that these call become more frequent.  If you have an Apple IPhone you can block the number.

Called my NJ number.  Two rings and hang up.  No msg left.  Also reports on other boards that this same number called and hung up on them today.  Obnoxious.

I agree. I didn't get any unknown call before I posted my resume on the web.

We get these "Rewards Redemption" SCAM texts or calls EVERY TIME we add more minutes/time to our Net 10 pre-paid cells.  I added minutes YESTERDAY, and right on cue, today I got this call.  Even worse, they just rang once and then it stopped, baiting us to call back.  Didn't.

We buy from CALLINGMART.COM via Paypal, and so they DO NOT get our cc # that way.  We suspect both NET10 AND CALLINGMART are based in INDIA, and attempt to circumvent the DNC rules AS WELL AS attempting cc PHISHING and ID THEFT, after they get a name/phone number or email address to exploit.

They have been and will continue to be REPORTED each and every time this happens.

Another 207 307 0462 on my cell.
NEVER return these nuisance calls.

Called my cell late at night, rang once and stopped.  I have included a link to a recent article I read online.  It seems our cell phones will be victims to the robo-scammers too.

Just got a call from them on my (703) cell, at 10:45 p.m. One ring & that's it, no message. Checked here before calling back & obviously scam. Wanted to add my story because everyone else's were so helpful for me :-) Thanks!

Phone rang.  Then just got disconnected.  Didn't even go to my answering machine.
