I received a text regarding my resume posted on CareerBuilder.com I uploaded my resume yes****ay afternoon and did not apply to this company. They claimed to be from Newport Medical Solutions. I contacted the company directly and they informed me have had multiple issues regarding this spamming **** (my wording not hers). She was very friendly and professional. Hope this helps.

I keep getting calls telling me my order is ready to ship on an item I know nothing about. It is a safety alert system, the kind in the commercial, "I've fallen and I can't get up". I realized today when I answered the call that it is a recording. I tried to call the number but was told the number was not in service. I do not want to receive any more of these calls, but I don't know how to stop them. I never ordered any device like the recording says I did. Is the government behind these annoying calls??
(708) 929-9158 - June 17th, 2013 4:29pm
recorded caller said that someone had ordered and paid for a medical alert device because someone had at one time fallen at that address, he then said so that they had the right address to ship the free item to, that I merely needed to merely press "1" on my phone keypad (my su****ions is that should I do so, I would be connected to some 900 number where trusting and naive people would be unwittingly charged a big fee for, or some other dubious thing) So, I just **** up and wrote that number down on my avoid list.

Just got what appeared to be a pre recorded message that I would be receiving a medical alert system that someone may have bought for me. Said it was free. I tried to interrupt but I finally just ***g up the phone. If I get a package, I will have it returned. I think the scam is not only sending the goods but paying to send it back if possible.
(708) 929-9158 - June 17th, 2013 5:50pm
Same call re med. equip. that others have reported. This comes on my land line. I am on "do not call" list. There have been multiple calls from this number. It is dangerous for me to have to run to answer these calls--or even to find out who is calling. How can this be stopped? I need my phone for sick relatives, so can't disconnect. This is abuse.
(708) 929-9158 - June 26th, 2013 7:28pm
I get calls from this number constantly and don't answer. They never leave a message! That shows it's a big SCAM and an automated calling system that keeps dialing numbers and only "talks" when a actual person answers the phone! My advice.... check your caller ID first before answering. Nothing IS FREE!! AND if anyone is sending you so****ing.. they'd TELL YOU.

I would love to reconnect with the individual who is pestering a friend of mine. Can someone take away their toy. These people are preying on older Americans vulnerable to questionable approaches. If this number traces to MCI, I would think MCI would have a vested interest in clearing their name and reassigning this number to a responsible party.

If Anyone Ever Finds-out the Names of the People who are Doing this - Please Post the Name of their Company and Names on Here - So that , I can Sue them. Tired of them Ruining My Weekends. Thanks
(708) 929-9158 - June 20th, 2013 7:25pm
Thanks John but no thanks. They're getting more 'realistic' with their recordings and that's scary for the older adults who are more trusting then some. They need a conscience! Shame on them.
(708) 929-9158 - June 20th, 2013 11:17pm
Same thing, tried to tell me they had a full medical alert system ready for me to have delivered. All he could do is stutter. What a freeking loser!
(708) 929-9158 - July 10th, 2013 7:39pm
I get a call from this number every day. It's a voice recording "from the shipping department with your medical alert..." That's when I **** up.
