I have received repeated calls from this same number, another one today. Of course, I do not answer, I let the fax machine squeal in their ear. But they, like tons of others, continue to call back, again and again. As to the reasons for some of these calls, I have come to believe that many of these creep telemarketers love to make people angry because they pester everyone with their incessant calls. These creeps are themselves telephone terrorists in their actions, yes, they love to incite anger in people, just like other mad terrorists. They love to reply to one's request to remove them with as vile and vulgar language possible. I cannot figure how they must feel at the end of a day after cussing out tens of call answerers, they are truly a very sick bunch. But there is no way that we can ever rid ourselves of their scourge, the government cares not and refuses to do anything about it. So, like myself, use whatever means you have --- call blockers, fax squeals, refusal not to answer any call you do not recognize the person or number --- whatever gives you any sense of peace (if that is at all possible) to continue with life and ignore these creeps.
