Called our home landline in So Cal at about 6:00pm. Unrecognized Caller-ID so we did not answer as per our usual routine. Unrecognized and Blocked Caller-IDs go to the answering machine and we screen the call. If an expected call or someone we know -- we pick up. If not, we let the caller leave a message. This has worked fantastic at reducing the spam call we get.
Anyway, the message left was a brief fast busy-tone beeping before they disconnected. On a callback to the number that called us, a little while later, just to be sure, an outgoing recorded message immediately and very briskly said, "Press 9 To Be Put On The Do Not Call List." Then it went straight to the same fast busy-tone beeping. Not even so much as who they are. No identifying info at all. I did not press 9. No way.
Obviously, this is a disingenuous SPAM CALLER. CALLER-ID BLOCKED!
