I have gotten 20+ calls in the last three days from these [***]! I am not the person they are calling for but when I tell them they have the wrong number they hang up in mid sentence & then a few minutes later call back asking for the same guy again. I tell them I am not him, CLICK, 15 min later here the call comes again. Each day the caller id shows a different number in a different area code (or sometimes no caller id at all). Really getting tired of this.
Why can't something be done about these harassing people? How do they get the right to call and harass people?!? I ask them nicely to remove my number and that I don't want them to call me anymore, they tell me I'll just keep calling because I can. REALLY?!? SOMEONE NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
Modern technology has given telescammers the tools to call you.
Since those telescammers are criminals, they ignore both the Do Not Call list and any request you might make.
Modern technology can also protect you, if YOU do a few simple things!
The most effective thing to do is to get a call blocking device, service or app.
Then, use it correctly.
Google "call blocker" for more information. There are available apps (some free) for smart phones, and services and devices for landlines.
If you cannot use or afford such a tool, then:
• Do not answer calls from unknown numbers ... let them go to voicemail or answering service. Telespammers usually hang up after 3 or 4 rings.
• Do NOT return calls from unknown numbers! All that does is verify your phone number! And, in some cases, those return calls may cost $20 or more to complete. If the incoming call was important, they would have left a message!
• If you have a "dumb" cell phone, assign the scammer's number to a group named "scam" (or similar). Then, assign a silent ringtone to that group. (This also works for smartphones).
• Another option, for cell phones: Assign a "silent ringtone" as DEFAULT. Then, assign your favorite ringtones to all known friends / family / business numbers. That way, you will hear rings ONLY from those you wish to contact! You will not hear scammers' rings, even if they change their number! (This is also called "whitelisting", and will cause you to miss calls from non-whitelisted numbers).
If you want to report potential fraudulent or scam calls, here are two pages of links to (mostly government) sites in Canada and the USA were you can report those scams, or learn more about them.
