9.,15.2016. Female,robo,telemarketer call.Spam. company name: Senior Medical Alert System. Offering: FREE:: medical alert system, installation, discount pharmacy card. ALL FREE. Cost will be paid by their "organization". Instructed to press 1 to give address. Too good to be true. I can see why vulnerable seniors would respond. Don't press 1.
Why have Do Not Call Feature, it overseas idiots find a way to use robo calls. All these idiots should be place in jail, take away their assets and the government should pass very strict rules !
Received 6 calls today alone from this number
OK so how do we sue them under TCPA?
(201) 546-9975 Robo call recorded 11 August 2016 ("The American Chronic Pain Association and the National Center for Chronic Pain Management has issued a serious prescription pain pill alert..." bogus topical pain cream offer)
Caller ID: "Hackensack NJ"
A not so professionally worded robo call message so filled with inaccuracy that it should tip off the receiver of the call that it is as bogus as a three dollar bill.
Honestly, have you ever heard of "...a serious prescription pain pill alert..."? Doesn't that sound a little ridiculous?
And how does this caller know "...all private health insurance providers have now authorized of providing of a revolutionary new pain relief medication to all health insurance policy holders suffering from physical pain or discomfort..."? (don't you just love their misuse of the preposition not once, but twice in this statement?) Surely the mention of "a revolutionary new pain relief medication" is a tip off that they're making exaggerated claims.
Don't bother to "press 1 to verify your address and delivery date". They don't have your address, this is a cold call in violation of the Federal Do Not Call law and they dialed your number completely at random.
And don't bother to "press 5 to notify your health care provider that you have refused the shipment". There is no shipment to refuse, they just want to make it sound like you're a long time customer of theirs.
Seriously, isn't this entire recorded message insulting to your intelligence?
Here is a transcript of this "free topical pain relief cream" telemarketing call:
[female voice:] "This is a very important message to all health insurance policy holders. The American Chronic Pain Association and the National Center for Chronic Pain Management has issued a serious prescription pain pill alert. In response to the alert in an attempt to stop the growing use an abusive prescription narcotic pain pills all private health insurance providers have now authorized of providing of a revolutionary new pain relief medication to all health insurance policy holders suffering from physical pain or discomfort. This medication is applied directly to the pain related area and is non narcotic and extremely effective. This new pain relief solution is covered 100% by your health insurance provider at no cost to you and your pain relief medication can be shipped immediately. Press 1 now to verify your address and delivery date. Again press 1 now to arrange delivery. Press 5 now to notify your health care provider that you have refused the shipment."
