I've received calls from these same numbers too! They call in the morning/ afternoon and range from Philippine, Indian, or American-ish accents and the caller id says they're seemingly from all around the U.S. country. It's getting unbearable. The 860# asked for a Brigett (not my name). 860-453-8080 (Connecticut), 484-891-5510 (Pennsylvania), 866-978-6307, 917-398-9357 (New York), 678-310-2804 (Georgia), 866-415-7170 and 385-235-7363 (Utah).
An Indian man left a message claiming to have a loan approved from Cashnet, Brigett creeper called first for online college applications, a stupid sounding lady who calls me "mam." I feel harassed.
Put the blame where it really lay's, with the criminals and illegal telemarketers.
The DNC works just fine. It is for telemarketers only and honest business does indeed abide by it. It is the criminals (which includes illegal telemarketers), frauds and scammers that do not. However, the Fed. DNC does not cover some survey's, Political or Charities. You would need to check your states DNC laws to see if these are under your states DNC laws. The fact remains that they are not automatic call blockers though and can not protect you from the calls that are criminal, illegal or fraudulent.
Do consider maybe getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $60.00 or so.
