I had to answer this note. My husband passed away three tears ago the first of November, So I am also a widow.
The caller hangs up after 4 rings so I never spoke to him/it . When I tried to call back the number is NOT is service.
I had my phone number unlisted [ landline] and how can you add to Do Not Call when the number ""IS NOT IN USE""
My daughter gave a cell phone so most of the family and emergency calls are on the cell phone.
Ellie ~ I know exactly how you feel being alone makes the "asinine" calls. My husband traveled quite a bit so sometimes it dulls the pain of the corrupt a$$e$ that make the calls. You will be in my thoughts with good wishes. Also ~REALLY amazing about our names being so much akin.
I also received this call for the first time today, so I immediately blocked it using a unique computer program which is integrated with my phone line. I suggest that anyone who is semi-retired like myself also do the same. It is very easy to know if caller is a "Scam" caller since they never leave their name or the name of their company. I must at least take the call the first time but never physically answer the caller. I then block it. Good luck!
I got a call from this number today. I would not answer. Know they are no good! I have a Panasonic phone system that blocks 250 calls! They have been blocked.
