CNAM was 'ILLINOIS CALLER' & 'Decatur IL' respectively.
When this number is called back, one gets 'The person at Ext. 1010 is unavailable' and further outgoing that says 'Sorry, but the user's mail box can't accept more messages.'
Have gotten this with SEVERAL other unsolicited calls when called back with the same voice and outgoing msg, so obviously an illicit entity that's using multiple numbers. These aren't likely spoofed or else one wouldn't get the same outgoing UNLESS they're spoofing some innocent co. who has several ph. nos. with that outgoing msg which I find highly unlikely.
Having received the prerequisite =/>2 calls from these jerks, I'm triggering my 'remedy' for them...
To wit... Placing their number on my Selective Forwarding List, a feature provided by our carrier [ also referred to as Exclusive Forwarding by some carriers ] which sends any future calls from listed numbers to my present 'favorite crap call recipient' [ see below ].... jes consider it another way of 'blocking' their calls to my number...
FWIW, any of Y'all what got Selective or Exclusive Fwd'n capabilities with your carrier it's a really great way to divert unwanted calls and 'give back' to one of them AHs who's been particularly annoying to ya... like one of the organizations officer's direct nos. [ several of which have been dug up and posted in some of the threads on this site ]... or to say your State's AG's Consumer Affairs Office, or yer congresscritter soes perhaps they'll take note of this nuisance... or any of the several nos. that have REAL TM'r persons calling like certain 'local' non-profit outfits [ that are SCAMMERS IMO, as they typically pass only VERY small %'s along to the purported recipients ]... you get the idea...';)
To be really effective you need to choose a 'recipient' for the Fwd'd calls that is at a real number, answered by a real person or answering machine / voice mail.
