I think most people who use 800notes know that the DNC Registry is pretty worthless for controlling calls like these. My phone has a 250-number blocking capacity and it's filling up fast.
Defenders of the DNC Registry--and there appear to be a few of them, likely government employees--say that telemarketing calls have fallen off sharply since the establishment of the registry. That's only true if you count large major legitimate businesses, who are the only ones who obey the law.
I receive more calls than ever, from solar energy salespeople, credit card "interest-lowerers", fake Microsoft technical people, lawn service companies, exterminators, sellers of fake extended warranties, phony IRS agents, mortgage brokers, air conditioning repair companies, and just about everyone else. Such calls are illegal but the FTC does nothing and never will do anything. Complaints just vanish without any action being taken by any government agency. It's pretty sickening, but that's government "efficiency" for us taxpayers.
WARNING--BEWARE!! These callers are B I G credit card criminals, known as the card service scammers! Under NO circumstances, give these lowlifes your credit card number, or you will regret it forever!
googled number as it was ringing just now. love when it pops up on this site so I don't bother answering. save to my contacts as 'crap', so the next time crap calls, it will amuse me.
It's been OK ever since scam artists reared their ugly heads on earth. Do you really think these calls come from anybody that gives a crap about a do not call list?
Every time I see that comment it makes me wonder if the person is bright enough to even have a phone!
'IF' you would have taken the time to read the previous comments, you would have become enlightened to the fact that the callers are criminals, and criminals don't obey laws, including the do not call registry.
