just like everyone else i get calls from this # and many other unknown area codes. Same experience. I forwarded my landline to my cell. i will allow them to call once and go to voicemail. If they dont leave a message or call back after I've advised they are calling the wrong # , i press talk and say nuthin. That way these idiots r unable to leave a message. i have a contact listing in my cell called "JUNK". I save these #'s to this contact so when they call again(and we all know they will no matter what) they're already identified. We've all learned the hard way to never pay for call blocking. i was always leary of the DNC registry even though it's been verified as legit. Telemarketers, debt collectors and scammers know they have hit the jack pot if they had access to a nationally recognized list of phone #'s of this sort. i received more junk calls "AFTER" i listed my numbers on this registry. Somebody makes money off of our fears and frustrations. The only way to control this issue is to have a personal trick of yur own. The "JUNK" contact is my way and it works for me like a charm. My sister answers them and pretends she has a bad speech problem and pretends to be an old lady that cannot make decisions without a family member. She leads them on and aggravates them soooo bad and these idiots are actually trying to get her to buy stuff of all kinds. By the time she finishes with them they never dial her # again. She is hillarious. She luvs doing it too and I'm rolling everytime I hear her do it! Make them hate to call u!! LOLLLLLL
