Great info.
Called Mr Cohen and he actually picked up his cell himself, not voicemail.
He seemed to be a decent guy. Talked to him for about 10 minutes.
He is bothered that he pays a company to provide him a list of valid (not on do not call list) numbers that his business can legally call, and he gets about 90% good numbers and 10% bad ones (numbers listed on do not call list). He has changed companies 10 times and they all lie. Once he got a list and 50% were bad numbers. So as a business I understand his side, and genuinely want to solve the problem of his side of this vicouse cycle of madness.
I don't mind getting a call every once in a while even though I am registered on the do not call registers, however when I do pick up the phone, or even bother to call them back to see who it is, there is never anyone there...I don't get it. So now I am more annoyed that I get 10 calls a day, leaving 10 hang ups, and I can't make them stop.
These jerks are still calling even though they get one ring before they are blocked. Reading through the recent posts here it seems they change their CNAM regularly, typical ploy of a tele-scammer.
I've received several calls from this number in the past couple of days. It is a spoofed number because I called it and the number comes back as not in service. I even have the number in call blocking and the call still gets through. The number shows as Hawthorne , Ca so I know it is a telemarketer trying to beat the system.
