phone number falsely reported as Malwarebytes known scammer

[SopranoKDS]

888-544-2715 is reported as a Malwarebytes known scammer, but it is actually my new CPAP supplier.  I didn't answer it the first half a dozen times because of this false report.  Fortunately they left a message.

Thank you.

You may want to rethink that relationship.

Have you ever received voice messages or texts saying your CPAP supplies are “ready to be ordered”?

Our law firm is investigating allegations that medical suppliers such as Lincare have been targeting consumers with robocalls and failing to offer them an option to stop future calls, potentially in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA).
