Scammers are using automated prompts to bait victims, then switch to a live rep who pushes a free home‑security install. The voice‑bot lures you into a false sense of legitimacy before a human tries to pressure you into sharing personal info or paying for equipment you never asked for. The pattern is typical of robocall‑to‑live scams: brief intro, scripted questions, then a sales pitch. If you get a call like this, hang up immediately, block the number, and report it to the FTC or your carrier. Never give out address, credit details, or agree to a free‑install offer without verification.
A recent call offered free home security installation, starting with automated questions before a live person took over, prompting a warning to others about the scam.
