I keep getting calls from an unknown number or 800 numbers, lot of different ones! It's foriegners, sometimes can barely understand what they're saying! But they say they're a pharmacy and want to know what meds i take and if i want to order pain medication! WTH is that? over the phone? from a pharmacy? Yea i bet they're REAL legit!!
I've asked them several times to take my name off thier list but yet they still call many times a day. Anyone else get this or does anyone know what i can do to stop these annoying calls?!?!

And it sounds very illegal. Probably a scam to get your account information. I saw a report on the news 2 days ago, the sheriff's association was warning people not to return messages from numbers that begin with prefixes like 204, 207, 866, and a few others. It seems when people returned their calls they were being put on hold. The messages left varied but one was "return this call immediately, one of your relatives have been hurt in an accident.". When people called, then placed on hold, and BEING CHARGED HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS PER MINUTE TO THEIR PHONE COMPANY!. I would report them to your AG's office immediately, you have their numbers, sounds very illegal, an attempt to gain access to your accounts.

I'm getting phone messages lately - EVERY DAY from a number that shows up on my caller ID with the name "business opp" (as in business opportunity) from someone named John at "SAS", and in the message, he says he desperately wants to share this 14 trillion dollar (not kidding, he said 14 trillion) business opportunity with me, but I must call him back.

He gives a different 800 number every time he calls, and I called ONE of them back - it took me directly to the Federal Do Not Call Registry (which I'm already registered on)! What the heck??

Now today, I happened to be home when this call came, and answered it, ready to chew someone out over calling me when I'm on the Do Not Call list. They hung up when I picked up. I've researched this a bit on the internet, and it appears a lot of people are getting these calls - and it follows the same pattern - the guy calls, leaves an urgent message about a business opportunity, but hangs up if you pick up the phone, and if you call back, you get the Do Not Call registry.

Weird.

and Annoying. :evil:
