3rd scammer call in 3rd consecutive day - no message left from this 1. So annoying! Blocked this call - hoping that they won't call with another number!
I am also on the do not call list. I don't understand this DO NOT CALL LIST. I am always getting phone calls from scammers. I have call ID. If I don't recognize the number. I do not answer it. I do have a phone that will block out the numbers. This one is next on my list.
When they call report them to the FCC but do not press 1 or 2 because that only leads them to call back per and FCC person that came to our area last fall. Do not call list is only a place for stupid businesses to try and scam the public.
Norma, the DNC Registry List is just that....simply a list. It does not block calls for anyone, from anyone, and offers no immunization against any caller that wants to call you...legal or not. This list is required to be purchased at frequent intervals by all companies who Telemarket, or do sales business over the phone.. (Telemarket= Sales by Telephone).Most legitimate businesses do honor the request of those who wish not to be Telemarketed and have put their numbers on that list. Businesses who are legitimate and have proper physical and mailing addresses, Business Telephones, and who maintain a reputation of good standing with their patrons, do indeed honor it. If they dont, they are easily located by the DNC Registry and their is a quite hefty Fine for violations. There are many loop holes in the DNC. Political, charities, surveys, non-profit, informational, and others are excempt (Pity). Most, unfortunately, judge the DNC by the scammers and bottom feeders who honor absolutely nothing. It is best to judge the DNC by all of those calls that we ARE NOT getting from the legitimate and reputable businesses. Think of how much our phones would ring if not only the scammers and such continued to call, but the millions and millions of business who would call if not for honoring the DNC.
Hope this helps.
