Register your phone numbers online at http://www.donotcall.gov or call (888) 382-1222 (must call from # you want removed).
I have greatly reduced the number of calls to my cell phones by going to my carriers website (Verizon) and they allow me to block up to 5 numbers for 90 days. Since these scum change numbers every 30 I have had a very peaceful time. Call me once shame on you, call me twice shame on me. I also put it in my contacts list under Scum Suckers and assign it NO ring tone so at least after the first call they won't bother me anymore (I have filled all of the numbers in each and am up to Scum Sucker 47 now). This is only a whack-a-mole solution however it is the only one I can offer.
I have gotten several calls on my cell phone from this number. I called it back from a landline and it appears to be some sort of sweepstakes entry notification. the good news is that it provides you with the option to have your number added to the DO NOT CALL list.
