Dan that is not how the caller list works... when you register your number for DO NOT CALL.. that restricts Legal, Legitimate telemarketers from calling you... Do you really think a scam or a crooked person would be stopped from calling you for a crime JUST BECAUSE you are on a DO NOT CALL LIST?? plus this does not stop all the times YOU share your number!! Walmart, Target, your local newspaper, the phone company sell HUGE printouts of all numbers per month.. and businesses BUY these lists.. NOTHING to do with DO NOT CALL LIST.. So I ask you How is your ignorance of a service provided by the government working for you??? It is a band aid to shut people up.. There is no power in this list.. A crook committing a crime is not gonna stop because it is illegal to do.. Stop sharing your phone number with reward cards and memberships.. and I bet your bothersome calls will end.... HARUMPF...'MURICA and the greatest arrogance and ignorance in the known world!!
The gov't could stop these calls if they wanted to. I worked for a phone company and on 911 we blocked all calls worldwide through our network. If these calls are fake they could be caught by the network as the originator would have no billing info and they could be blocked. Enough B. S. Just do it.
