Man from this number called. He asked for me by name. I told him that his phone number prefix begins with a "1" so I know it is a masked number. I told him to stop calling. If a phone numbers prefix begins with a "1" as in 198-9784, it is not a real number.
Why would they mask their real number? I don't know, but if they feel they have a reason to mask it, then I have a reason to believe they are nefarious in their intentions.

These telemarketers have continued to call me even though I asked to be put on their 'do not call' list. The last time I asked, they gave me a hard time, so I hung up on them and added them to my phone system's 'auto-hangup' blacklist.
One time, they called here somewhere in the neighborhood of 6 to 8 times in just one day. The number is a false caller i.d. - no real telephone prefix begins with a "1". Even if I answered, I would NEVER take them as a sincere or reputable business.
If they are selling contractor services, they will never get even the tiniest piece of business from me due to the fact that their very first play is to show me a false caller i.d. Lame.
