To get them to stop calling set up your fax machine to call them 24-7. they will never call again because there line will be busy for ever with fax calls.
I got two of these calls tonight...I too like some of you have friends in RI and knew the area code...but I knew it was not their number. Why can't the phone companies do something about these calls? I am sick of unwanted phone calls too - thank heavens for caller ID...but sometimes we have been fooled.....
