Said it was a federal issue, he would save us from the magistrate or grand jury. Call was from Marion, OH. Left a lengthy robo message and repeated it multiple times.
Uh.. yeah. Not believing that someone from the magistrate wants to get a hold of me over the phone to "help" me from the serious trouble I am going to be in if I don't contact them.
First -the DNC does not cover debt collectors, some survey's, charity , political calls or calls from foreign country's. DC falls under the FDCPA/FCRA laws. Its also not a call blocker and can't stop criminals, frauds and illegal callers from calling you. Most of these calls are coming from India and Pakistan, where we have no jurisdiction.
Second, you do not have to "renew" your DNC listing. That changed before the first year was up to permanent, once on its there until you remove it or change your number. All you do by renewing it is open yourself up to 30 day's of legal calls from the honest business's who abide by it.
