I keep receiving calls several times a day from a person by the name of Tom with Home Protection. My phone number is registered on the "do not call" list and this happens everyday. This needs to stop and I am not sure how to go about it. I was under the impression that I would not receive these calls if I was on "do not call" list.
I received my first call from this number at 6:15 9/19. I let the machine get it and they left no message. Like everyone else I searched for it and was lead here. The second call came in at 8:30 9/19. I answered and was told in a heavy and hard to understand accent that said they were from MTronics and asked if I had a smoke detector. I replied that it was odd that they were calling since I was on the Do Not Call List. The man immediately said M'Bye Bye and hung up. I, of course searched online and found this website - www.mtronics.com which is for a company that sells electronics out of Huntsville, Alabama.
They were kind enough to provide all of their contact information as follows:

Don't know if this helps anyone, but at least it's a little more than what was here before.
And, hey, they called you maybe they want you to call them ;)
I just got the second call in a week from the same heavy accent male who immediately said it was not a sales call...I told him again I was not interested and hung up...am going to call my local NBC station and have their consumer dept look into this "not a sales call"...and I am on a DNC list as well...interrupted my last few minutes of Ellen!! aarrgghh..
I just got a call from this number. I live in New England. I don't know if they are only calling New England or the whole country. I'm too busy now, but if I get this call again, I will report it to the FCC.
Crooks can spoof Caller ID, but they can't spoof the phone company's own call records, which the FCC can subpoena, if they get enough complaints. Your Caller ID should also show the accurate call time, because it syncs with the US atomic clock regularly. That'll help them find the caller.
Never answer for an unidentified caller. Never call them back. A lot of this stuff is done by housebreakers, pretexters, kidnappers, and organized crime. Tell your children to do the same.
If you call them back, it might be a charge call. They're not all 900 area code numbers.
