Although on the no-call list and the call block, these people call back time and again with the shouted:
DO NOT HANG UP!!! I resent that - someone should subject these folks to an extended lesson with nothing but these messages - with NO way to turn them out.
I'm another among those on the DO NOT CALL list. These creeps call often, despite my having reported them each time. Maybe if enough of us take the time and make the effort, they'll be stopped. I also usually go past the recording and waste as much of the salesman's time as I can afford that day, before letting him know I had no intention of doing anything but reporting them.
The lowest of slime on the other end of this call. A recording: "DON'T HANG UP!" They claim it's not a sales call then proceed to tell you that there's been a burglary in your neighborhood & you've been recommended for their home security system. It terrified our babysitter (who answered) who then called her father crying and in fear, which traumatized our children and put an upbrupt end to our anniversary dinner. I would like to learn who is behind this & launch a public campaign against them. Or maybe call their children to tell them a burglar is wondering around their house. I cannot imagine how many people they must terrify.
