Anyone also getting repeated call re car maintenance cover?

[BSdetect]

Been happening for at least 2 years now. Multiple calls per day.

I block them without answering of course.

Obviously some scam as my car is a 2012 model.

Wish the scam fighters on Youtube could destroy this mob.

Now they've stopped. They did hijack my phone one time. I had called my doctor's office, but I had to call them back. When I did I got a recorded message offering me a chance to save money on car insurance.

9. npr did a story on this a few months ago

I don't have any trouble with it, though, as my iphone automatically set up something that filters out these calls and others like them. In fact, I never get any cell phone spam.

However, the story was really interesting. The first round of scammers got arrested and convicted, I think, but the scam gets adopted by others.
