received a call didnt pick up assumed rightfully so its another scam- went to look up its source--I too am on a do not call which sadly no one follows----
I am on national do not call list, why are these people bothering me? When I answered, it was recorded message asking if anyone in our house had ever used Yaz, etc. I tried calling the # back to ask them not to call, and was entered into sweepstakes. Great, another bother that will have to be dealt with later...groan
The DoNotCall Registry works on voluntary compliance like speed limit signs on highways. Honest telemarketers honor the Registry, abusive telemarketers and scammers do not. Conversely, if you are on the Registry and you receive telemarketing calls, you may be sure they are from abusive telemarketers or scammers so toy with them as you wish, they are begging to be messed with.
My call from this number today identified themselves as WCA (whatever THAT is) then thanked me for taking the internet survey (I didn't take any internet survey) and started going on about a sweepstakes. I hung up at that point. I had received several calls from this number in the last week, but either wasn't home when they came or I ignored them. My Caller ID just says 'Unknown Caller'. Very annoying!!!!

Yeah, they call every day. Not anymore. BLOCKED the number (a nice feature of Panasonic phones...too bad criminals like Verizon, Time Warner etc. don't allow for blocking calls, and instead encourage abuse they get paid for).
It would be nice if Iranian lunatics, and troubled loners (like Philip Chism and James Holmes) and guys like George Zimmerman don't do what needs to be done...F**K UP these telemarketers. Put FEAR into them. Make them understand they could get, at the very least, both their eardrums punctured.
They are not just pests, most of them are scammers.
