Do you think you were a target of a scam? Report it to the BBB at bbb.org/scamtracker. Of course we always recommend using the teleCalm service to help keep your family safe. Our phone service replaces your loved one’s current home phone service and is monitored and controlled by an app on the caregiver’s phone. You can see who is calling, block numbers from calling in, set approved dial out numbers and set a do not disturb mode to keep people from calling in the middle of the night.
