I'm going unlisted. Darn telemarketers are driving me nuts. and also for other people. I'm going off line now until it's changed. For some reason they told me to unplug my DSL while they do it.

The best response these criminals could get its their door being opened by the "big men in grey suits" saying "come this way, we have something to offer you"...

I am glad my phone has a call blocker feature. I just don't answer any call I don't already know. After it stops ringing I google it to see who it was. If telemarketer, it's added to the block list.

One time they called me at 6:30 AM on a Sunday morning. so I got the blocker they would switch phone numbers and call again. Called the phone company and the police and none of them would do anything . Plus I had a software place called me almost 50 times in a week. So this was my last choice. ID: 1844121 ·
