I've received many calls from this number. My VOIP provider lets me block numbers, but when I put in this number, it said "invalid number." I called my provider and they said they will try to do something about this, and that apparently this number is generated through the internet, cannot presently be blocked by me and really probably is just 301-000, even though that would not be a valid number either. I am on FTC's DNC list. The perpetrators are wasting many people's time and interrupting peoples' lives, perhaps at very inconvenient times.
Caller 'wanted to be sure you will be home"
Then misrepresented pre-existing relationship: "we inspect and clean your system every 3 years"
At least it was local, the 3 calls a day misreprenting themselves as Windows or Microsoft are not in US.
But local may be all the more reason it should be investigated - a company that has to mask their identity may be more likely a burglar than a 'legitimate' business.
To think the FTC is funded to deal with this problem.... and we will go broke paying their pensions....
If a candidate swore they would enforce the do not call list they would get my vote.
Absurd that we have a law and an agency that does little if anything to deal with this.
But then look who contributes - the cell phone providers - the same group that moves up to higher profit margins when we give up on our wireline phones and go cellular.
