When I get this annoying call each day, I politely tell them to take my number off of their list. They say ok, sorry about that, and yet the next day another idiot calls me from the same number! They claim they are from Google Support, and they want to update my website, which is nonsense! THEY ARE LIARS!!!!
>> I have registered multiple times on the DO NOT CALL LIST to no avail. <<

Fact: The National Do Not Call list is NOT a call blocker!
The DNC list is a LIST, subscribed to / purchased by legitimate telemarketers, so they know who not to call. The FCC or FTC do not give or sell the list to unqualified recipients! Click "Tip" for a tip.
TipThink about this, if you have signed up for the Do Not Call Registry:
The Registry effectively stops (almost) all calls from law-abiding, legitimate telemarketers.If you received a call from a "telemarketer", what does that tell you?Extra credit question:
Does ANY law stop criminals from practicing their "trade"?
Fact: Telephone numbers on the Registry don’t expire. You do NOT have to re-register annually.
Fact: Scammers and spammers ignore the DNC list .
Many use "war dialers" to quickly dial phone numbers. After all, phone numbers are just numbers, and are no secret! (Arabic numbers were invented about 500 AD, so even stupid scammers know about them by now).
Fact: The DNC list does not apply to NON-sales calls , such as political calls, charities, surveys, debt collectors and businesses with which you have done business with during the previous 18 months.
Fact: Spam callers can be blocked by getting a real call blocker .
Google (or your favorite search engine) is your friend.
