YES... I.e.: if you are on the national DNC registry, and an automated telemarketer keeps calling you, the best thing to do is have the state att'y general mail them a letter, and eventually this will actually scare them enough to stop calling.
I have asked to be removed from this list three times at a minimum. I have been rude, and I have been polite. Someone needs to do something about these people.
Here is another article about these calls, and it looks like they identified one person behind all of this.

Have received multiple calls from multiple numbers (all from the NE US) with the same car warranty recorded message. When I finally pressed "1" and told the caller to stop calling, he hung up on me. Calls have continued about 1/day. Each number is a "not in service" number when I try to call back. I think this guy is spoofing disconnected numbers so he can't be tracked. I have no idea how to make him stop. He calls even though my cell number is on the no call list. Very annoying.
