4014014010

We just received a call from this number (we live in Ohio).  My wife answered and the person said they were conducting a survey about home safety.  They asked four questions like - do you have a smoke detector, etc.   After the fourth question, they wanted to know my wife's name.  That's when she got uncomfortable and said she did want to give them that.  They got very angry with her so she hung up.   I told her in the future just to hang up when she gets these type of calls

Got this call today, 10/22 @ 6:55 pm.  Lady came on and asked if I had any fire extinguishers in the home.  How odd, so I hung up.

My phone has been ringing none stop for 3 days now!
My answering machine is full.
Caller I.D. shows 1-401-401-4010...
I can't eat, I can't sleep!
I'm afraid to leave my house!!!!

I just got his call myself. It was on my answering machine.  And the caller ID had that number on there.

I got this call a while ago , and stupidly answered it without first thinking, because I have a friend in R.I. and if I would have thought about it,
I would have realized it was a bogus number 401-401-4010. Beware and do not answer this call if you have caller ID

A call from this number came through on our voice mail at 6:10 PM this evening. Oct. 23rd. Just scratchy noise.

I actually answered this call since we don't have caller id.  It was a young guy with lots of noise in the background.  He said his name was Kevin and he wanted to know if we had working fire alarms in the house! I *69'd it and then *57 to trace it.

I just got this call Oct 24 7 pm ...man on the other end saying to check my battery ...I ash him his name and phone number and he hung up...

Got the sam call as Ken received ...when I asked for a name and phone number to cal bvack ...they hung up.

They called me about noon on a Monday and they actually talked to me!   They said they were with some "alarm company" offering a special deal.  The caller had such a bad middle eastern accent I could hardly understand the 3 letter abbreviation of the company he said he represented.  I told them I was on the DNC list and by federal law they were required to give me their company name and phone number.  I asked to speak to the manager or the callers boss.  I couldnt understand the second person that came on the phone either.

I continued to [***] them out for calling me!  ITs my phone, if they wanna bother me I'm gonna give em [***]!

They called me around 1:00 today asking whether we have fire alarms installed...same deal...annoying. I'm glad this web site exists

someone just called my cell 4rm this # (oct. 27, 2009: 6:00 p.m.). It is wierd how that number is so random ppl actually look it up when it calls...lol:)

Have received calls from this number several times, the most recent was today at 6:37 p and 8:01p. He called land line and I let machine get it. He started singing, how funny.

Got this last night.  Went to my land line but had my all-in-one printer turned on and the call went to my fax line.  Hope they liked that sound in their ear!  :-)

i just got the call earlier today as well. at 6:19pm Central time.

I answered the call today at 3:25 pm.  A woman with an Indian accent tells me this is not an "(inaudible) call". She just wants to know if I "have a smoke detector, yes or no". In the past few months, I have received a few calls from a man with an Indian accent with basically the same script: "I am calling from (inaudible). This is not a sales/marketing/(inaudible) call. I just want to know if you have a smoke detector, yes or no."  I NEVER answer 'yes' or 'no'. I simply reply I am not answering any questions and hang up. I don't want my answer being recorded as authorization for some illegal activity or international calls. The time before this call, when I asked the gentleman to repeat where he was calling from, he wouldn't answer me, he just repeated his smoke detector question, more insistently, asking me to answer 'yes' or 'no'. I made it a point to tell my husband & kids that if they forget to check caller i.d. and they answer such a call, never answer questions.

The no call lists, phone companies, politicians could care less about the public being inconvenienced by these cretins.

Just received a call from the number in question and, like others, looked it up.  Am posting to continue the trail of phone calls.  I'm in West Virginina.

Got a call here today also (WV)...they must be hitting 304 area code today...LOL
Didn't answer, my machine auto-blocked it, so it's obviously not originating from the area code in the caller ID. SPOOFED.  Better luck next time ;p

Received the Rhode Island call 2nd time today (11/2) at 1 PM. First was a day or so ago. He asked about smoke alarms. I told them not to call.
Land Line 610 area.
