Ok people enough is enough. CALL your phone service provider and tell them under no uncertain terms that they provide you with FREE number block or remove the dam phone all together. It wont happen till we stand up for our rights. After all who pays the bill YOU DO! Why should you pay to be harassed. They can block individual calls and if they tell you that service is not provided in your area then tell them, they better provide it or else! TAKE BACK THE POWER OF YOUR MONEY!!!!
Received this call at 10:53a on 6/15/12, when I answered no one would say anything. After a few seconds a recording said goodbye. I keep a list of these calls and report them to my states Attorney.
Thats easy to answer. You are getting calls aiming for the person who had that number before you got it.
There is a limited number of telephone numbers. Between direct-dial office phones and fax machines and home phones and cell phones an awful lot of those numbers are already in use. In some areas a number may be issued to someone else less than a month after the previous owner give it up. You get the pests the previous owner was trying to get rid of.
GOSIP1 on CID. I don't know why but I answered it, just for the heck of it. I said nothing for first couple of seconds, then said hello, heard nothing, hung up. Won't bother to answer it every again.
