Telemarketing scams are EVERYWHERE!

Never give out personal information over the phone. Not name, not address, especially not financial information a d social security numbers.

Callers can say they can be anyone. I'm 34 and not even close to being an AARP member. The elderly are the most targeted because they are the most vulnerable and less likely to realize and report.

Be smart folks. Never ever give out personal information over the phone. It is a pain in the butt to get your identity back (it is a nightmare) and your financials back in order.

Warn others and beware.

Got call , caller ID said New York. # 347 - 502  2530. When I answered, it was silent on other end. I am on the do not call list, but still receive calls like this. How can these vultures be stopped from calling? I called back with a pre paid card so they would not know what # I am dialing from and got a message to dial one for a do not call back to this #. I pressed one and got the message, that they would not call back and that's as far as I could go. It is some kind of scam, because I used the pre paid card and it does not give them the number I called back from, so how could they take my number off? I wish I could find out who they are. they would get a call from me and it would not be silent on my end of the phone. .

347-502-2530. Caller ID: New York. No one there.

Reported to AARP today. They do not believe it is their survey, and if it were theirs, they would not ask for any personal information.

This is a scam

Do not give any personal information over the telephone.

I've gotten two calls today. Didn't answer. I have a $50 phone that will block calls. I'll block them now. I honestly think that these people have a phone number sharing network,because since I started blocking calls, they are less frequent..
