Who called from 3059014690

calls but leaves no message.

@Slim
Why should people have to purchase a call blocker when we pay for the FCC to establish a database containing a Do Not Call List?
Why don`t these bureaucrats start imposing fines on these companies and bankrupting them?
If they can`t do their job, let`s just threaten to ELIMINATE the whole FCC!  Think they might get the message and not sit on their collective butts and just collect their salaries?
All it takes is a President with b*lls to threaten this and I am sure we would see some results

The DNC was created for the use of LEGITIMATE telemarketers.

Most of these unwanted calls don't even originate from this country.

Isn`t it amazing that you KNOW most of the calls do not originate in this country.  I regularly get calls soliciting money for the the State Troopers in FL and they give the same spiel.  They speak perfect English and since they do pass on a very small portion of the money collected, they somehow qualify as a charity.  I refuse to make a "pledge" and, instead, support the projects my church chooses.  They have a mailing address in the next county.

The DNC list does not automatically block calls.  Instead, it provides a list of  "do not call" phone numbers to legitimate telemarketers who pay a fee for the list.

The DNC list exempts political callers, survey organizations,  charities and companies with preexisting business relationships, but these organizations might have their own, internal Do Not Call list (ask them).

The DNC list  is not effective against criminals, spammers and scammers, because those people do not subscribe to the DNC list, and do not care if you are on or off that list.
Its purpose is to stop calls from legitimate telemarketers, and it does a pretty good job at that.
