Once again we have several people who failed reading or more likely didn't take the time to read the directions when they signed up for the DNC. If they had they would know that the DNC covers sales calls and sales calls only. Survey don't sell anything. Here, I'll put the link up so that the next time you don't look foolish because you don't know what you are talking about:

SSI claims to be a survey company, but they are actually a telemarketer for a number of different scams. They also claim to be legit but are spoofing lots of different local numbers (including with your own number prefix!) to get you to answer the phone. That's illegal and certainly not legit. Don't bother asking them to take you off their list. They will just call more often. The FCC needs to root these people out and issue another big fine.
Called, asking to speak to an obviously fake name. I've had this number for 15 years. They refused to identify themselves, which usually means it's a telemarketer or scam artist.
We all need to start reporting these numbers to the FCC, or they will never stop. Attaching the link: https://consumercomplaints.fcc.gov/hc/en-us?r ... n-us%2Frequests
Survey company that harasses people on the Do Not Call List. If you make the mistake to pick up just once it will earn you at least 10 to 20 additional calls from them over the following month, even if it is clear that you are not interested in talking to them.
