It seems that "anne" and her cohorts took a "vacation" coincident with that big power issue in India a while back....?  But, yes, "They're Ba-a-a-ck!"  as the young lady said.

More seriously, "Ann" is nowt but a scam, the free cruise behind the "survey" is apparently an effort to part you from your money by sending in a "small fee to claim your prize.."

Here in Canada, I actually spoke to a CRTC official who took the time to respond to my complaint and tell me that there is nothing they can do when the call originates outside Canada. He also inoformed me that my written complaint was one of over 1,000 per week his office receieves about this scam.

Similarly, the US FTC appears to be powerless, saying that although the calls appear to originate in Florida (as per the Canadian govt), they in fact are coming in to Florida from who-knows-where (Mombai? Beijing? Vladivostock? etc), making both governments essentially powerless to enforce their own rules as they currently exist.    Sigh...

So, hang up, hang up, hang up and complain complain complain....  You Americans who read this are in an election cycle- why not ask your wanna-be congressperson what THEIR plan is to deal with this menace? If nothing else, you may get some amusement from their answers.
