Same, called no message

no message, annoying

caller wants credit card information if you have more than $2,000.00 dedt then you are eligable for lower interest rate then they start asking you information about your credit cards.  I have requested several times to drop and delete my number because I'm on a no call listing but they still call and its all hours of the day and night.

they called 3 times in 10 minutes...no message.  I called the number back and its a recording saying this is a number that is not in service....

don't call me!

I don't answer unrecognized numbers. Called me but left no message.

I'm just as frustrated as the rest of you.  The number you "supposedly" receive a call from isn't likely the originating phone #.

Your best bet is to NEVER call a # back you don't recognize.  An unfamiliar # is not your long lost love trying to get back in touch, its not an old friend, it's not a family member in need, i.e., it's not a call that should pique your interest -I can't believe some of you saps call these #'s back (no offense)!

Secondly, if a call looks suspicious, I answer w/ my phone on mute... I don't say a word (usually a roto/autodialer won't originate a caller on their end until you speak).   If you answer w/o saying hello, and their end remains quiet, chances are you have a scammer.

If you do answer, NEVER threaten these FCUKS.  Sorry to say, but the ball is in their court.   They know you're #, and you don't know anything about them.  Let me be clear, the phone # on your screen is in no way related to them.  Threaten them, and they will bother you more and put your number on more call lists.

The "Do Not Call List"?  Hah, what a joke.   There needs to be stricter enforcement on Caller ID spoofing, auto dialers, et.   The jerks that call you don't have the DNC list, nor do they care about honoring it.

Typically you have companies mining for valid phone #'s (for resale, I've read the going rate is $0.10 a pop for every valid # they can compile/data broker -which is why I answer suspicious looking calls w/ my mute button on).   Change your outgoing message to only reveal your phone # for those times you can't answer phone w/ it muted -then at least they don't have your name via your outgoing message.   There are also smart phone Apps that recognize harassisng telephone/telemarketer numbers and spoof THEM that your number, "this number has been disconnected" (again, these scumbag telemarketer phone #'s are typically spoofed so these apps kind of help -but these *ssholes change their spoofed #'s often).

Write the FTC.   Write your State and Local Reps.  Federal Legislation was finally signed and passed into law w/in the past year or two but unfortunately the calls continue as nobody enforces closing "Caller ID Spoof" providers.

If the Feds can take down the Silk Road, they certainly could take down Caller ID Spoofs and Telemarketers.   Unfortunately for consumers, there is no revenue for the Feds to help us out, i.e., they don't care if your privacy is invaded b/c they can't make any money closing Spoof Services and enforcing the new(er) legislation isn't cheap.

Be smart, don't threaten these scumbags, don't put your cell # on surveys, the Do Not Call List is a waste of time, so is filing more than 1 complaint w/ the FTC... again, if you threaten these guys you will just be bothered more -that is until the Govt. takes effort to uphold existing law(s).

Hah, "telephone privacy rights".   Thats some ironic shti!!

I like to give these grifters totally false info in an attempt to waste as much of their time as possible,remember,for as long as you can keep them on the phone with you,they can't victimize anyone else.I've gotten pretty good at it,I average about 10 to 20 minutes a call.Hey,I'm retired,everybody needs a hobby! PS,it is true, the Do Not Call List is a joke,and once your number is on the scammers "list",it stays on forever,and as for complaining to the FTC,CIA,FBI,FCC,Hawaii 5-O, or anyone else,don't waste your time,that's a joke too!

thanks Ross, shattered all my dreams of it being a long lost girl friend, my X, or a prank dirty phone call.    As if loneliness isn't enough.  I didn't answer, thought it was American Restoration calling me back about fixing my old bicycle built for two.  Thanks for info folks.  Don't worry about me, I'll be ok...
