As soon as you answer you get a bot caller who says their name and asks can you hear them. Answering "YES" indicates to the bot program they have a live person and they will then run their program. I got "Hi, this is Ed from GE Security. Can you hear me?" I hung up and blocked the call....but getting tired of continuing to do this. Darn scammers call my cell phone continuously and I get tired of it. What good is the DNC? What good is complaining to the FCC? Neither of these stops these calls.
