740-818-9614

We received calls from this number twice today; one at 6:00 p.m. And again at 7:30 p.m. My husband ignored the first call but answered the second one. The person on the other end of the line said, "Hi, this is Joe from Family Protection". My husband hung up and we blocked the number.

This is not the first time we received this call and no one is on the other line
or if they are they don't say anything a real nuisance

-- i reversed the # in my skip tool, comes up to alexander & marieta nisteros, but when you call it back, its a non-working number... Its a spoof #

called 3 times in 60 seconds.  when I called back they said it was a non-working number

Caller ID Came up as Wireless Caller, trying to sell me a home security system.  This is how I respond to such calls: https://youtu.be/c-uGauK1eOE

(740) 818-9614  This number calls me constantly at work and on my cell phone. I have asked them several times to add me to their do not call list.  When they are told that they just hang up on me but keep calling.

This was "Amanda", a very friendly-sounding robot from "Home Protection", who, when I expressed interest in a home security system,  passed me on to a human operator. I let him go on for about 10 minutes, asking questions and playing along, before he got suspicious of the bogus name I gave and hung up - DAMN, one got away! These security folks are GREAT to punk, because you can actually cost them lots of time and money by getting them to come to your house to install a security system. I hope they call back - next time I'll give the correct name and address (they have it already from the phone directory...), and when they come I'll have a camera (for a video record), my 'weed-cutting' machete (to make sure they keep their temper in check) and a copy of the strictures of the National Do-Not-Call Registry to give to their boss (apparently He/She doesn't quite understand how the LAW works). C'mon, folks - PLEASE call back!

Pakistani phone scammers trying to generate illegal leads for monitronics dealers.

Person keeps calling

Received 3 phone calls from this number, plain nuisance.

I have received over 18 robo-calls from this number since I last posted.

This is a HUGE scam operation.  The number that shows up on your caller ID is a FAKE.   These scammers are making money by robo-calling all over the USA and then transferring those calls that show interest in the product to related companies that have been set up regionally around the US.   So their "installers" are moving around the US as they run through areas making these robo-calls.

They will NEVER give you any real contact info or company info - just a toll free number to their "customer service" department.    Which will stop working as soon as they finish up taking any money they can get in that area.

Their "monitoring" service they offer is more than TRIPLE what local companies in our are charge - and these scammers tie you to a 36 month contract that you cannot cancel without having to pay them for the entire obligation.

I could not get any info from these scammers when I questioned them as to whether they were licensed in our state - they gave me a bogus "License Number" that didn't check out with anyone.

ONLY do security with companies that are REAL, Licensed, Insured and local - these monkeys are NOT a real business - just a scammer taking the money.

How could you even get service?   They don't have an address, a working phone number or even a legitimate company name that they will give out.

First RED FLAG of a scam call!!

Consider getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $40.00 or so. If its a cell phone, some already have call blocking, if not, there are free apps on the web that will work for some. You can google this. If you have a smart phone, there is a free app called call control. Iphones appear to have apps also. Another one is called Mr. Number. For tracfone & straight talk:
