I get calls from this number and ignore them.
Have entered the name "DO NOT ANSWER!" in my cellphone, which takes calls switched from my home phone.
Another tactic when I am called from a solicitor.
I play the role of stalker and ask, "What are you wearing?"
If they describe innocuous outer clothing, "No. I meant what are you wearing under that?"
One woman told me I couldn't talk to her like that but I reminded her that she had called ME.
Just act real friendly and swarmy and see if you can get under their skin.
answered call and recorded message indicates it is a research company seeking input for a brief 30 second survey regarding the debt crisis and if you participate you "win" a cruise paid for by one of their supporters and you are responsible for a "small" gratuity and port fee. press "1" to participate or "9" to decline and remove your number. The no brainer answer here is I pressed "9"
I got this call, and it was identical, but didn't tell me I was responsible for the gratuity and port fee... I also pressed 9. I'll be interested to see if I get other calls.
