Everytime you receive a call from a telemarketer, do this:
Get the number they called from.
Call your representatives in Congress and tell them you just received a call from a telemarketer at ( tell them the phone #), then say thank you and hang up.
If the millions of us across the country start doing this, it will annoy and jam their phone lines.
Then the worthless self interest motivated elected officials will put some teeth in the Do Not Call Registry.
The point of doing this is to jam and inconvenience your representatives phones in order for them to take action against these unwanted calls. There are ways to stop these types of reported unwanted calls before they get to our phones, BUT there are currently laws that demand that all phone carriers connect all calls. Put some teeth in the Do Not Call Registry so reported unwanted callers can be stopped by phone number no matter where they are calling from. The law needs to change. If you do not want to take action, pass the word to others that will take action.
"BUT there are currently laws that demand that all phone carriers connect all calls." You need to keep up with the times, because the FCC has told them that there are no restrictions on providing the means to block these calls. http://www.nbcnews.com/business/consumer/fcc- ... ll-they-n378051
Do some research before making inane comments and posting nonsensical solutions that simply won't work. Keep in mind that criminals do not obey laws so no matter what law you pass they will keep ignoring it.
Robert Robo just called from this number. Left no message so I'm clueless as to what or who was calling. My security service gave me a message as the call is a landline. I blocked the number.
