This is a scam!!  It was on our local news by an investigative reporter. "Get Gephardt" KUTV2 in Utah.

Had same experience as some listed here.  When it shows "Alert" my first thought was the police calling with an alert.  Then I noticed the 702 area code and  realized it was just another creep trying to sell me something.  I refuse to answer any calls when I don't recognize the caller's number.

Robo caller said something like, "attention seniors". So I immediately hung up as robo calls are, I believe, illegal.

called my cell. I answered as I usually don't get spam on it. Robo call that started of with "attention seniors" and went on about getting $3000 if you're over 60.

The medic alert for seniors scammer's only reason for calling us, is to get our credit card numbers, so they can cheat us!

For the umpteenth time Sherriem and I get called by the same scammers.  My machine picked up a robocall message mid-stream at 7:55 pm today.   Woman's voice rambling on about $3000 in coupons for seniors (which I am not), and then got to the medic alert part of the scam.  Press 4 to be taken off of this opt in list.  HA HA - opt IN?  I never opted in to these scamming criminals!

keep on calling, do not leave message's

Enough already -- two calls within 30 minutes.  Do Not Call list violation

This time they left no robot message.  Just hung up.   6:55 pm 1-31-14

How do I stopped these robo calls "attention seniors"?

thanks

Well, what options does one have to defend themselves against intrusive callers?

• The Do Not Call list (Federal or State)
Works, but is effective against ONLY "legitimate" telemarketers.  Political callers, surveys and some other callers are exempt.  Scammers ignore the DNC list.

• NoMoRobo
A system offered by some telephone providers, to help automatically block robocalls.  Google "nomorobo" to see if it works with your phone provider.

• Shouting, screaming, swearing at the caller
Nope.  Does not stop calls.  May make you hoarse, and will disturb nearby people.

• Call blocker app, device or service
Could be a good choice (even though the scammers can use fake phone numbers), and some apps are free!
Google "call blocker" for more information, or check your favorite online sales site for a list.

Your phone provider may also offer blocking services.  Check their web page for information.

If you cannot use any of the above defenses, 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 "scammers" (or similar).  Then, assign a silent ringtone to that group.

Exactly what had been going on to me for A YEAR! They won't stop calling and they just hang up on you.
