The Caller ID said ALERT. Have had calls before from ALERT, but at another number. It is a scam of seniors who are promised a "free medical alert" system, plus food coupons. I will report this number to the FTC. Frankly, it is time for federal legislation beyond the DNC registry; it is time for legislation that provides penalties to telephone/telephony companies who lease line and/or facilities to scammers, especially after notification of violations of DNC and scams. This would provide incentive for telecommunication companies to investigate and respond affirmatively to consumer complaints and to provide documentation leading to arrest and conviction of those continuously perpetrating fraud and scams.
