Caller sent the whitelist code for "friends and family only, no business calls" on my screening machine. When I answered, she started into a survey for purchasing stocks. I interrupted and said to permanently remove my number from her calling list. She said she could do that as soon as I completed the survey, and started to repeat the question. I said no, I want to be removed immediately from the calling list, and I am not going to answer any survey questions. She said, I cannot remove you if you do not fill out the survey. I said, I believe it is a Federal felony (extortion) to refuse to stop calling someone who has requested it unless they do something for you. She just repeated that she cannot remove me unless I fill out the survey, and started into the question again. I told her I was reporting this, and hung up. I do intend to put this into process with appropriate federal authorities (although I doubt if much will come from it.)
(646) 934-6633 called my new Google Voice number I set up to have a local area code in the state I recently relocated to. Realtor for 10 years and get a dozen of calls a week from vendors. Was surprised to have a spamy call so soon on a new number. Don't pick up calls from weird area codes. If important they leave a message. Blocking.
Another scum soliciting outfit - wanted to know if I buy stocks online and when I told them it was none of their business they told me they would call every day until I answered their question. I asked her if she banked online and where she banked and what was her credit card # and she promptly hung up on me.
