stop unsolicited automated phone calls to 513-871-5447 to list my business
Complaint
Joanne Porter
Country: United States
Very frequently, I get these automated phone calls Google (my caller I.D. identifies them coming from out of state phone numbers in different cities in the U.S. ) wanting me to list my business with Google. I press the button on telephone that the automated telephone message tells me to press to stop the phone calls from coming, but every time my husband's caregiver in a nursing home makes an online purchase from a company that has your name in it (as it is listed on my Discover Credit Card)I get these automated phone calls from Google. One of the company's name on my Discover bill is "Google*Tim Delivers Google.com/CHCA. The other company that must be connected to Google is QualimedSupply.Com Woodstock GA. Soon after they make these online purchases the automated phone calls from Google to 513-871-5447 start coming. I am elderly and can't keep running to answer the phone. PLEASE STOP THESE UNSOLICITED UNVERIFIED PHONE CALLS.
Comments
"Google Home Business Kit" fits the pattern of common fraudulent telemarketing cramming scams. Typically, they try to get consumers to disclose their account or card numbers, for a "free trial" for "just shipping and handling", and then start cramming monthly charges of around $80 or more onto consumer accounts until consumers realize it and block them.
Although one of your suppliers has Google in their billing name, that may be because they are using a Google storefront or for billing. It may be purely coincidence that you are getting robocalls monthly, and ordering supplies monthly. The medical supply companies may have auto-ordering services for routinely ordered supplies.
There is probably no relationship between the scam calls and the companies you are using. These scams typically just cold call consumers using "sucker lists". You should, however, always check your statements for unauthorized charges.
I work from home and have listed all my calls "do not call". They have ignored my requests to remove
Believe me neither my wife or I answer our phone unless we recognize the number- we have lost this right to privacy - where is googles "do no evil", or do they allow others to do the dirty work for them. I will never use a service or vote for a politician that uses robocalls.
Their number is 5103579511- same on google to do business with cowboys
It is a huge waste of productivity for businesses when they have to answer these calls.
I used to work for a telecom and we'd frequently get calls for this, unfortunately there's really nothing to do. The calls are obviously fraudulent, but your phone company probably doesn't have any way to filter them. Even if they did, these automated calls frequently come from a bank of randomly selected numbers - and they may have a bank of tens or hundreds of numbers to choose from.
Basically, the best you can do is to keep ignoring them, they probably have a system that checks how long a caller stays on the line for or whether or not they answer the automated prompts. So your best chance is to not pick up or hang up immediately - hopefully they will eventually stop.
You can also try calling your telephone company and asking what they can do about fraudulent calls. Don't mention google, or at least not until the technician understands it's a fraudulent caller pretending to be google. Less skilled phone support technicians will be inclined to blame it on google, to shift blame because they don't know what to do with the call. Just be persistent, maybe technology has changed and there's something to be done - probably not though.
