They called me again, I told them I reported them once already and if they continued to call I would report them to the FBI. The guy tried to argue with me, I repeated what I said. Beware.

Yes, the previous commenters are correct. This is a criminal organization of confidence tricksters engaged in a fraudulent scheme to
steal enough personal information from innocent people and target them for future contact for detrimental nefarious activities, including identity theft, which can then be used to create online credit card contracts. The first callers are the 'assessors', who evaluate a persons vulnerability and susceptibility to being easily duped and lulled into a false sense of security. The second stage is to establish a quasi-relationship with the victim, thereby setting the stage for gleaning more secure information related to personal assets.
Make no mistake, these people are not your friends. They are heartless criminals who prey upon the vulnerable and uninformed.
Their aim is to enrich themselves with just a small investment of time and effort. Do not rely upon the DO NOT CALL REGISTRY, which is a complete waste of your time. There has never been a prosecution brought about due to a DNC Registry reporting.
Thank you Dr John.
In future I will regard all of these annoying callers as criminals.
I have always been dubious about the registry and now I agree it
is worthless. The government is complicit in these scams.
"Bill" must be "Dr John's: roomate. Perhaps the rest of this post might find its way to Bill's operating brain cell.
Which reply do you prefer? Which one do you understand? Which one applies to YOUR statement?
A reasonable reply (such as mine)? Show image ▶ A typical "internet answer", possibly given by trolls? Show image ▶ The Do Not Call list is NOT a call blocker.
The DNCL is used by honest / registered telemarketers to avoid calling folks who do not want to be called. Charities, political calls, and NON sales calls are exempt. Criminals ignore the DNCL.
Obtain a call blocking device or app, and protect yourself from repeated spam / scam phone calls. Call blockers work, when used correctly. Use your favorite search engine to find one.
There are apps (some free) for smartphones, devices for landlines, and even phones with call blocking capability. Owners of "feature phones" can set up a "group", with a silent ringtone, and assign spammer phone numbers to that group.You are an idiot, since you think the Do Not Call list is supposed to be a magic switch, that blocks all calls you do not want. The truth is, the DNCL works, but your brain does not. You are a prime example of a school system failure who thinks anything more complicated than a sharp rock is a joke.
Stop blaming others for YOUR mental deficiencies! How about buying a clue, and getting a real call blocker. Can't you spell "call blocker", or don't you know how to search for one?
It is obvious that you are incapable of understanding the words on the various Federal Do Not Call info pages, since you are blathering about things that you have absolutely no real knowledge of. The DNC system is not a joke, but you qualify as a bad joke.... and, which answer got your attention?
