Telemarketing calls tied to the American Income Life Insurance Company?

I only saw one reference on this site to this firm, but the American Income Life Insurance Company appears to be linked in a call I received today. It used the same Hawksnetworks.com/Merkavoix.com Pakistan call center links to so many other calls.

Prior employees complain a lot about this place with phrases like “The Meat Grinder of telemarketing” & Zip Recruiter even has posts from the company, saying how you can work from home as a sales rep with commission-based compensation. They are headquartered in Waco TX but the one ad I am seeing is for the West Covina, CA location. This also is where it appears my caller today is employed.

The call came from another Peerless Network number of 440-283-3941‬. This number was already marked as spam by my carrier.

Peerless was notified once again. - and it promptly went into the Peerless blackhole of ignorance.

With today’s complaint, I reference the FTC Cease & Desist letter Peerless received last year, see: https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pointofnoentry-peerlessceasedesistletterfinaljms.pdf and I included the complaint I sent to Peerless as being CC’d to the FTC attorneys who were assigned to the last issue: Fil Maria de Banate and Christian M. Capece. Their email addresses are listed on the FTC C&D demand letter PDF.

This call was one of those burial insurance cold calls.

You can trace the agents using websites like Agent Status and https://cdicloud.insurance.ca.gov/cal/LicenseDetail . Both sites will list all the license registrations, even inactive ones.

The US agent the call transferred to said his name was Robert Torrez, I even had him spell it. There were only 2 agents with that exact name in the US, one in CO & the other in CA. He was not the one located in Colorado (voice did not match).

The other one was shown to be working for American Income Life Insurance Company in West Covina, CA. The company also goes as “Globe Life Liberty National” and appears to be opeated by Desi Dimitrova (Desislava Dimitrova) = who is known for doing MLM insurance seminars with complaints on Reddit such as https://www.reddit.com/r/antiMLM/comments/z07kx1/patharc_is_one_of_the_new_fronts_for_dimitrova/ and https://www.reddit.com/r/antiMLM/comments/ixwq3x/american_income_life_insurance_job_everything_you/

I called her cell phone several times and even sent an email to Robert Torrez but they never bothered calling back to respond to my complaints.
