"Expiring" Warranty Scams run amok

CAR WARRANTY ADS-555.jpg

Tired of getting those pre-recorded "Expiring" Warranty" phone calls, stating that your vehicle's warranty is about to end? I am. I get perhaps one phone call a day from these "robocall" scammers. Not only that but I get stuff in the mail too. Grrr...

Here's an interesting link on just this topic. It offers a lot of info on what's going on here, and how you can fight it. Here's another link on this subject.

Ah, now that explains those calls. I was never too worried given my car is a 1998 and I'm the second owner. Nor was I confused it was leftover from my last car since it most definitely still has the warranty in place. I did follow the instructions on my last call like this, pressed 2 or 7 (can't remember) and I haven't got one since.
