i HAVE BEEN GETTING THESE CALLS AS WELL. SOME TIMES 20 OR MORE CALLS A DAY. ASKS FOR EVELYN i KEEP TELLING THEM THAT i AM NOT WHO THEY ARE CALLING. WHEN I HAVE A MAN ANSWER THEY WON'T TALK TO THEM.
THIS IS VERY FISHY.
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.
Received a call today from this number. Caller identified the company as Eloans. I told him that I didn't need a loan and that he should remove me from his list and NEVER CALL MY NUMBER AGAIN. This is an epidemic. This is the fourth call I've received today from either an "unavailable" number or a number that I don't recognize that ends up being on this site or other similar ones. The Do Not Call list is a joke.
Continue to get calls from various loan companies saying our loan is approved. Keep telling them to leave us alone and not interested. Started blocking numbers but they just call from a different number. Finally started talking to them and taking as absolutely much of their time as possible then tell them I am wasting their time just like they keep wasting my time. Then they get mad and curse at us. One guy made some threats to my husband about blocking our bank account and placing a fine against our SSN - neither of which they have, nor does the fine idea even exist. I guess I would call this a prank call since they are not legit. Yes, like everyone else, we are on the National DNC Registry.
