These butt-wipes called my DNC listed phone at 1702 hrs today. Realizing it was a spam/scam call, I simply picked up but did not speak. The system disconnected almost immediately. (Most robo-messaging systems apparently don't trigger until someone speaks. Don't speak and most will disconnect by themselves. It doesn't stop them from calling again and again because they're scam artists but at least you don't have to listen to the nonsense.)
You can rant all you wish (there are sympathetic ears here) but do not hold your breath in the hope that someone can stop these people. They are scam artists so they don't care if you don't want to be called and don't care if your on a do-not-call list. They blatant violate the law because they are criminals and they hide behind technology to keep from being located.
Answering calls from the card service scammers, with the intent of requesting them to not call again is an act of futility. We all need to recognize these callers are criminals, not simply annoying telemarketers.

Just got a call from this number and I DO NOT answer my phone anymore unless I know who's calling me. I have also turned off my answering machine so these idiots cannot leave a message. Thank God for caller ID on my TV. If I had a nickel for every call I have received calls from bogus callers, I'd be rich. Don't have time to listen to anyone's speech about what ever they are trying to sell. Never give to charities either as I don't know how much of my dollar goes to the person in need.
