We've been getting carpet bombed with annoying calls claiming to originate from all over the USA ever since my youngest daughter inadvertently picked up on a call three days ago that identified itself as LOCAL NEWSPAPER. When she picked it up, it disconnected after a few seconds. I'm guessing this was the probe call to identify working phone numbers with people on the other end.
(718) 285-3945 called June 11th, 2015 at 4:39 pm. Did not answer. Left a 3 second voicemail saying "goodbye" in the woman computer voice. Will add it to my long list of blocked numbers on my cell.
