Called my home phone this afternoon and I didn't answer and they didn't leave a message.
The Caller ID said it was from Auto alert.
Must be a scam.

Caller ID Said V31711383....  Strange ID.  Left Empty VM.  Logging for Posterity as expected to be spam.

2nd call from this # around 2 months after first call.  This time CID said Auto Alert like others.  Again, left empty VM.

Got a call from this number. I answered and after a long pause, a man asked to speak to me or my husband.  I asked who was calling, and he hung up.  Caller ID said Auto Alert.

Never, EVER, give out ANY information about yourself or your household over the phone or online!

Just don't answer calls from numbers you don't recognize. Your friends and relatives will leave messages accordingly.  Ignore calls/emails from those you don't know.  And don’t waste your time on “do not call” lists and the like.  These lists have a bazillion legal loopholes, and the callers are scofflaws anyway; they couldn’t care less whether or not they’re breaking the law.

Only when we take the profit out of these calls will they stop!
