True story...

Several years ago my grandmother who lived alone (in her 80's) at 8500 feet in Colorado bought one of those life alert necklaces in case she fell.

She noticed that they had the wrong area code in the paperwork, so she called and they told her to press the button so they could see the Caller ID that came in...then they could update the records.

She pressed the button and went to bed.

And was awoken by the local fire department smashing down her all steel high-security door to her breezeway.

5K in damage before it was all said and done
