Same scum different Spoofed number - 701-248-1059 Caller ID "Pauline Poghosy" - Typical scum bag human sewage scam call...
Hit the big red button on the call blocker and added the jerk call to the blocked list...
Tempting as it might be it's best to NEVER answer these turd's calls and engage them - it only puts your number on the autodialer's "call more" list since it confirms the auto dialed number used is a "live number" with a possible sucker on the end...
Too bad there is no listing in the "Call Type" that actually matches the real manner of the scum making the calls - there should be at least "Scammer" in the list.... Some where there may be an actual valid telemarketer making unwanted calls...and that's the only case that "telemarketer" really fits...
Also confirmed it's a spoofed number with this link after wading through a web search that mostly turned up all those Baloney Sandwich (BS) "gimmee Money!" crap "free" reverse number lookup links The JackOffs are using another number but the same name:

Posted: 04 Mar 2015 at 1:46pm - Got a phone call from ? definitely not a US party by accent, 541 area code, Pauline Poghosy on the caller ID, trying to get me to get on my PC and follow their instructions to "Fix" a Windows issue I have been having that I was unaware of.
Needless to say I said no thanks and hung up, within the next hour had four more calls from the same Area Code, number was 541-257-1035, shows to be from Oregon is all I can find."
Answer the phone. No party on calling side. Message: "This number is currently busy." Music. Hang-up. Later, phone rings. Same routine. Caller ID: Sales Dept. ACC.
We were called by this number before 7:00AM, probably thanks to daylight savings time beginning in all the other states but not here in Arizona... grrr...
I have my home phone ringer turned off but forgot to turn down answering machine volume before going to bed last night. Fortunately I was already awake. Some woman jabbered something incoherent and hung up...
We screen all incoming calls. Usually if the call is coming from someone who knows us, they'll leave a message as we request on our answering message. If we're able to get to the phone, we may even respond before they finish recording.
Previous morning we also received a call around the same time, but from an unknown blocked number.
But not to worry, I'm SURE our Congress In DC is working hard to protect us from thieves using phone technology to steal us blind. As soon as they get enough donations for their next election, that is...
