No reports yet so I'll post…
At 9:34am I got a call from 310-870-9248. Caller ID said "L7 SCVC CALL". Figured it was another scammer, so let it go to voicemail. They left no message, just hung up when they got the machine (there are posts regarding this particular number here on 800notes).
At 9:35am (ONE MINUTE LATER) I got a call from 469-270-7070. Caller ID said "MARKETING SOL".
So their robo dialer (the first number) found a "live" phone (because I let the call go to voicemail), disconnected, and then sent the info to their OTHER robo dialer (this second number).
Well, I wasn't having any of that… I hit the "talk" button and then immediately hit the "end" button. I have read from others that if you do this, it doesn't register as a "live" number so can sometimes tell the robo dialer that it's not a valid number. Don't know if it's actually true, but what the heck, I'll give it a try. At least it stops the phone from ringing off the hook.
Blocked both numbers and reported the calls to the FTC (888-382-1222).
