2016 seems to have gotten off to a bad start. Just today, I got an unwanted spam phone call from a telemarketer and so did my wife.

I am not sure when I last updated my list of blocked phone numbers, so I sat down and did a bit of file maintenance.

If you have a few minutes available, put the numbers below in your phone and block them. It might save you some time and aggravation later.

814-923-0976 from Pennsylvania on Jan. 19, 2016. A quick search reveals a number of complaints, including a solicitation for a security system to a pitch for a pre-approved business loan. Whatever it is that this phone number is selling, I am not interested and entered the number on to my blocked list.

March 4, 2015

I wonder what changed for the year 2015 that so many folks, including me, are now receiving scam – spam unwanted phone calls from telemarketers on our cell phones. I do not recall getting hardly any telemarketer calls before January 2015.

Running list of unwanted telemarketing phone calls and scammers in my phone to date: Updated January 20, 2016:

Spam 1:

909-387-2418

541-257-1575

407-519-1035

603-570-9015

619-324-4655

407-519-1035: This number was already in our system on July 16, 2015, when a family member got the call. She already had it in her system as "junk." And I already had it in my system as blocked - "spam." A quick search of the internet indicates that it is this is source of several various phishing schemes.

619-324-4655 called 9 a.m. on Tuesday, July 21, 2015 and the phone said that the call came from Riverside, Cathedral City, CA, United States, 92235. A quick search of the internet reveals, "Received call on mobile. Robo-message. "False Alert" about credit account. Did not identify which company call came from. Intrusive and scammy..."

Spam 2:

469-615-8471

410-667-3963

646-712-8141

541-257-1119

Spam 3

321-215-4861

206-397-5640

410-318-9171

630-914-8915

610-298-9506

630-914-8915 called at 12:44 PM on July 22, 2015. I did not answer it, I was on the phone with another person. When I did a quick search on the Internet, I found, ""Congratulations your business has been approved for a $250,000 loan" at this point I hung up...." and "The current company is Peerless Network: 312-506-0920, if enough of us contact them and complain, perhaps they will stop. Seems to be various scams coming from this number...

610-298-9506 appears to be unwanted phone spam from Avondale, PA... I got a call from this number September 8, 2015. I did not answer. The caller left no message. I called it back and it immediately answered with a recording, "if I would like to be placed on the do not call list...."Although a quick search on the internet does not easily indicate its product, it does appear that many folks do not want to contacted by that number. Whatever, it is certainly not a family member or friend so I blocked the number.

Spam 4

210 627-8613

305-587-2062

7777

615-671-3047

682-703-8118

210-627-8613 was a spam phone call on Monday, June 15, 2015 from San Antonio TX that I have won a free cruise.

305-587-2062 called Monday, June 22, 2015 with an offer for a business loan.

7777 is a new malicious unwanted pH call that first happened to Caroline Sunday evening June 28, 2015 and then I got it at 2:54 am in the morning Monday June 29, 2014. Unbelievable

I just got an unwanted robo-phone call from a telephone marketer who offered me a pre-approved loan regardless of my credit rating. There is a special place in hell for unwanted telephone calls from marketers who call my cell phone. Fortunately, I do not get many calls from telephone solicitors...

Unwanted telephone solicitor phone calls update for March 4, 2015:

A family member got a phone call from 321-215-4861. According to various sources, this is a vacations promoter and telemarketer out of Melbourne Florida. Although one source said that the telemarketer sells timeshares. Another said Carnival Cruise Lines. Whatever. Another commenter reported that “they use a computer program called a Predictive Dialer. It starts with an area code i.e. 201 then start at 201-000-0000 then 201-000-0001 etc until they get a ringing number. All none ringing gets kicked out of the system. After a pre-determined # of rings it hands up. After they call a # x amount of times, that # gets kicked out of the system too.” Read more at http://www.whycall.me/321-215-4861.html#WFUgorAwxbf6eafR.99

I recently read one account that reported that the telemarketers of today do not care about the do not call list – especially if they are using a sequential dialing program… That the telemarketers today have no fear of any consequences of the do not call sanctions – not unlike the e-mail scammers… This is one f the many reasons that millennials are increasingly not using e-mails – or taking phone calls.

Sometime after February 13th, 2015 and before March 4, 2015; I got a spammer telemarketing phone call from 909-387-2418

Unwanted telephone solicitor phone calls update February 13, 2015

On February 13, 2015 a family member got a phone call from 407-519-1035. A quick search indicates that it is a spammer – One of the many websites reporting the number as a problem reported, “Phone number: 407-519-1035 is located in Geneva, Florida. Its exchange 519 is managed by MCI METRO ATS, INC. - FL. The number is currently on switch number ORLDFLXHDS0.”

+++++++++++++++++++

February 4, 2015 ph spammer update. Add another telemarketer 541-257-1575 from Oregon, to your spammer – do not call list.

Phone number 541-257-1575. Wanted to talk with the owner of the business in charge of working capital. She was very aggressive. I immediately said, quietly and politely, “Please put me on the do not call list.” This annoyed her and she kept repeating her question. I finally simply and quietly hung up.


January 21, 2015 update: Add another telemarketer 646-712-8141 to your spammer – do not call list.

I just called by 646-712-8141. I did not answer because neither me, nor my phone recognized the number. A quick search on the internet reveals that it is a scammer according to multiple posts, for example, “Business loan offer from a robo-call.” Another post said, “Unknown caller is a breather. The breather called to our personal home phone which is an unlisted number. I've been getting numerous unwanted calls at all hours of the day/night by various phone numbers. I'm very unhappy about this.”

According to MyCallBot: “Central Office: NWYRCYZN01, NY - NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC – NY”

A (real) friend on Facebook recently wrote what many of us are feeling these days, “About a month ago, we ditched our landline to save a few bucks and to free us from the dozens of robocalls, marketing surveys and other come-ons. Since then, my cell phone has received Frederick city-sponsored poll, a woman who wants me to save on my car insurance and, just now, a recording that says I just won a cruise to the Bahamas. When we had the landline, I could pretty much guarantee a call on my cell phone was worthwhile. What the hell is going on?”

I’m guessing here – but I can only imagine that this is all okay with the telecommunications industry – that is not known for really caring about the user experience of its customers.

Apparently the recent spate of unwanted phone calls – and text messages has spawned a cottage busy with lawyers: “Why You Should Report Text Message Spam… Stop Text Message Spam … Did you know that it’s illegal for marketers to send you a text message without your consent?  According to the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) if a company sends you an unsolicited text message, then they are responsible to pay you $500 for each spam text message that they sent you.   This law is in place to protect you from the annoyance, nuisance, and invasion of privacy from these telemarketers.  If you report the unsolicited text message that you received to us, we’ll track down the sender of the text message and help you recover $500 for each unsolicited text message you received.  We’ve helped hundred of individuals collect against telemarketers for their spam text message campaigns.  Report now above and we’ll see if we can help you recover $500 for each text message.”

This is good. Just saying.

Take the time now to enter into your phone the following phone numbers and identify them as Spammer…

410-667-3963

909 387 2418

602-346-9758

410-667-3963 is one of the latest “Do Not Answer” phone numbers out there.

This is the phone number of a telemarketer for a remodeling company…

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Do not answer phone calls from 909 387 2418 or 602-346-9758.



On Monday, January 5, 2015 I got a scam-phone call from 909 387 2418. Then, the very next day, got another scam phone call from 602-346-9758.

Update January 6, 2015

After hardly ever getting spam phone calls on our cellphones for many years, in the last two days we have received two unwanted sales calls – calls that, in reality were probably attempts to commit fraud…

Today, the phone call was from 602-346-9758. I answered it. Yes, I understand that I probably should not have answered it…

The computer-generated robocall immediately began, “Attention, this is not a sales call. You have been referred by a friend to receive a free wireless system.  There is no cost for this system." 

What a load of crap… I did wait for the opportunity to block it.

Phone number 909 387 2418 is a scam

Monday, January 5, 2015

Do NOT answer a phone call in which the caller id indicates that the number is 909 387 2418. I got the call earlier today.

Fortunately, I have a policy that if you are not in my phone system, I usually, more often than not, do not answer the phone. This policy has saved me an enormous amount of time. Furthermore, this policy has probably saved me from many scams.

Today I got a phone call from 909 387 2418. I did not answer it. Afterwards, a quick search on the internet indicated it was indeed spam. For example, http://www.scamcallfighters.com/scam-cal:

“Scam Phone Number 9093872418, Robocall 909-387-2418. Important message about your credit card: https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&es_th=1&ie=UTF-8#safe=off&q=909-387-2418

“Calls and would not leave any message. Picked up and found a recording. "Important message about your credit card. Press 1 to speak to a representative". Clicked 1 hoping that I could get them to take me off, to escape the harassment but the line went dead. That's it! Waste of time... I've blocked this number for good” http://www.scamcallfighters.com/scam-call-9093872418-Robocall-909-387-2418--Important-message-about-your-credit-card--Credit---Debit--ATM-Card-Fraud-17791.html

Another post by “David Fights, Lead Investigator for Scamcallfighters,” reports, “This must be the "lower your interest rate" scammer. It's good that the darned system is not working! That should save the gullible from getting scammed.

“By enticing people with offer to lower interest rate, the scammers get the victim to reveal his personal & banking info apart from credit card details!

“According to the FTC, the companies behind these Card Services Offers can’t do anything for you that you can’t do for yourself, for free. If you are not able to get the rates reduces with your card issuer, neither would they. These scammers try to obtain your card details and will steal money as ‘fees’.

“However, FTC’s Telemarketing Sales Rule prohibits companies that sell relief services like these rate reduction scams on the phone from charging a fee before they settle or reduce your debt.

“You should file complaint with FTC, whenever you get a ‘Card Services’ call.
