the computer controls the calling, so if you want them to stop, this is going to take a L O N G TIME, but it works, I had gotten the callers to reduce calling me so much, had ben getting five or more a day, got it down to 1 or 2 a week, sometimes less, I am getting calls again, because I picked up a call thinking it was a call from the nursing home I was transferring my relative to, but it wasn't, it was just a hang up, that is the computer checking that the number is valid, if you answer, the computer says that it is valid and passes it on to the scammers, so this is what you need to do, turn off your voice mail and answering machines and if you do not recognize the number or the name do not answer the call, this will take a L O N G time, maybe a year or more, but you should start to see some results in the first 6 months, then just keep it up and eventually you will find the silence oddly strange, not hearing the phone ring off the hook, please pass this on to others and maybe we can get the scammers the message to go and jump in to a vat of acid.
