Called twice 30 minutes apart. Both calls after 9pm. Left no message. Caller ID showed "Unassigned". I called this number back and got a recording message asking me to leave my telephone number to be removed from their tele-marketing list. I am on the "do not call" list as well, so these people do not seem to respect it.
I reported 206-339-3733 to the National Do Not Call Registry at www.donotcall.gov and asked the FTC to fine them.the maximum of $1,600. They call people whose numbers are registered and we need to shut them down. The more of us who report these scumbags the more they can get fined -- especially if they keep calling you. You should report them, too; takes ~2 minutes (but only if your phone # has been registered for at least 31 days). You can verify your number's registry at www.donotcall.gov.

Wow, Pluto must be a powerful guy, telling the FTC what to do, and having them "hop to" like that.
What other special powers do you have, Pluto ?
Here is a realty check for you Pluto, as your medications clearly aren't working on that whole gradiose delusion problem. The FTC works on an aggregation of complaints. One nut-job issuing intructions to them on how to handle a violator gets a big laugh. A thousand rational complainants gets a "ho-hum". A hundred thousand complaints gets reviewed with some interest. A million rational complaints gets real action.
However, it appears that this may be a survey, and a political survey at that. This would make the calls exempt from the DNC for two different reasons.
But just suppose, my delusional friend, that the voices in your head are correct, and you are secretly in charge of the universe. $1,600 ? That will have them shaking in their boots, eh? Especially when what they will actually end up paying will be 1/4 the original fine. You see, the reason no one cares about violating the DNC is that it is a toothless tiger. $1,600 is just an overhead expense to them, like the lights and the phone bill. They figure it into the cost of doing business, and then if they do get fined on a bunch of violations, they close their doors, lawyer the fines down to little or nothing because they are out of business, and open up under a new name.
In any case, try not to be such a clueless goof in the future, you sound like Barney Fife having a psychotic break with reality.
