Is anyone else slammed w/ telemarketing calls for car warranty?

We are on a do not call list, and we get 2-3 PER DAY every day for this

Usually its on the machine, but when I do pick up the phone, then press 2 for more info, the person comes on and says I need to know your make, model & year of car.

One time I had a 1952 Fire Truck. Chat Icon

The next one I had a 2010 Lexus Concept Car.Chat Icon

They will not say waht company they are calling from, and any time we ask, they hang up.

The numbers that show up on id or *69, "cannot be reached as dialed".

Re: Is anyone else slammed w/ telemarketing calls for car warranty?

We got one call last week. They asked for the make and model car so my DH said "You tell me, you're the one calling to tell me that my warranty expired, How do I know what car you're calling about - you called me I didnt call you..."

So they said to hold on they will look it up Chat Icon and then they just hung up on my DH.

Scam.

Yes! I'm a state away and i get them too, it's a total scam.

I'm on the do not call list too and i asked them for their company name, they laughed then hung up on me.

I filed a complaint on www.donotcall.gov website with their phone number and blocked it on my phones..

If you are on the do not call list and they continue to call I believe you can sue them for damages.
