Called on a line that is rarely used at the office. Caller ID says: Electric Dept. no one there when I answered the phone, go figure. So sick of these stupid calls
SIck of these calls from this number which come at all hours. I don't answer the phone and they never leave a message. And we're supposedly on the Do Not Call Registry!
-Central NY-
Got this same call a while ago. When I checked our computers "$hit Li$t of harassing callers to be blocked", it came up next to "Con Ed TM". That's for Telemarketers (TM's) trying to get us to use them for our electric supplier. They might be legit but, Con Ed has been the butt of Many jokes about their incompetence on the late nite shows, and they want US to let them handle OUR service too? HA HA HA !!! That's A GOOD ONE!!
If our government can't or won't stop these calls by passing and inforcing laws against this practice, and the telephone companies are making toomuch $$ by letting these TM's continue to use 'spoofing technology', I guess 'We, the People' will have to find ways to minimize their inteferrence on our lives by ourselves. SO, Our computer has a 'CID on screen / answering service' program (PhoneTray Free v1.39) that WAS free ( maybe still is someplace on the internet) and works GREAT for these kind of callers. [ No, I don't work for them, but I do find their free program to be very useful. ] When I came here and checked out the unrecognized incoming phone # on OUR pop-up list, you people have verified my guess that it was the same company. >>Thank you all for your continued support of this site.<<, The other # they used was (914) 530-2365, so I guess I'll just block the whole (914) 530-23xx group of #'s. Don't ya just LOVE technology that can be turned against these idiotic TM's. Now, if we can only find a way to take out their phone servers and put them outa business permanently.
