First, the Do Not Call list does not stop any calls that are dialed regardless of where they originate. It requires the caller to screen numbers against the list although all automatic dialers can be loaded with the DNC list for the target area code(s) and be programmed to skip numbers on the list. Second, foreign entities wishing to conduct telephone sales campaigns in the US are required to register with the FTC and utilize the list the same as US companies. It is just much harder to go after foreign violators unless their country cooperates with the US.
The Canadian Pharmacy calls me at least once a day from some number I've been unable to block. The current number is 903-650-9737 but there have been other numbers. They never leave a message but if you pick up they reverse connect you to a live operator in a manner that looks like they use an auto dialing computer with a database.
Calls come anytime from 7:00AM to 8:30pm for over 5 years now.
This is harassment, Canada pharmacy calls all day starting at 9am and up to 10pm eastern. When I ask them to stop calling they laugh.
here is a partial list of the phone numbers Canada pharmacy has used in past.
I've been dealing with them off and on for five years. I've yelled and them hung up on them, they stop for awhile and they then start up again. Once they have your number it never stops. There should be law against it. Unfortunately the do not call doesn't stop international calls.
