Automotive Warranty scam

I've been receiving phone calls from these caller-ID numbers recently, claiming to have important information about my automotive warranty. They clearly are not my car's manufacturer, and similar scams are being reported elsewhere. These types of offers have arrived in postal mail for a while.

Do NOT fall for their sales pitches. They want to pretend to be a company you already deal with, and sell you expensive and questionable extended warranties under false pretenses.

I wanted to put these phone numbers on the net to help anyone searching for them from their caller id:

1-062-233-4418
1-062-226-3618
1-062-291-1712

Be warned.

Yeah I have been getting them too. On my cell phone. :^( I thought it would go away after the first time (they left a message) but they kept persisting. So I eventually looked them up at the following URL:

After a couple of other calls I finally decided not to hang up on the automated voice and told the person to take me off of their list and to not sell it to anyone either. I have not had a call in a while. We'll see.

The phone #s that called me from were:
402-753-9939
619-436-1835
419-241-4753
