I was called by a computer that wanted to sell me an extended warranty for my car. It said to press '1' to talk to a sales-droid. I'm on the DNC list and my car is almost 10 years old. My guess is that the "International Gateway" is being used by outsourced telemarketing firms to avoid being traced and prosecuted.

I receive at least 6 to 12 calls from this phone number everyday on my cell phone. They do not leave a VM and the one time I answered the person on the other end was unintelligible.
I am on the DO NOT CALL REGISTRY and will report this harrassment asap.

202-730-8001 Is a fake call back number. This outfit is a scam telemarketing company and they use eqpt that gives out a fake phone number on caller ids so you cant call them back when they piss you off or they dont give you the item they say you won after you send them money.
What I like to do is act interested in the scam, ask them to hold while i get my CC and see how long they will wait before they hang up. 12 mins is my record.

I just got a call from this number...I told him that it wasn't a good time and he told me to "F" off.

Same thing, I answered the call a few times, no one there. If it let it go to voice mail, nothing. If I call it back, it isn't accepting incoming calls. Maybe something to the FCC would help

I got a call from this number on my work cell: it sounded sort of like someone asking for information or assistance. I was on a MARC train and couldn't hear well, so I said so and told the caller to try again after the intercom; they said something like they didn't have time for that and then either my signal cut out or they hung up on me.
When I tried to call the number back (it's a work cell, and I'm supposed to be responsive to customer/stakeholder inquiries), I got a recording saying the number was not in service.

I got a call from this afternoon. A young guy answered and was saying that I won a camera and posibly a trip to Florida. anyway he kept telling me that I won a camera and how I should wonder how I exspect to win and that my phone number was picked. I was on my way to work and couldn't talk and thoght it was a scam so I finally hung up. I tried calling the number back later on though it says they are no long excepting calls.
I have gotten calls like this before where they will say that I win something and I can get it if I attend some meeting and I don't have to buy anything.
I don't understand how people can get away with calling people a hundred times and making them believe that won something.

i got 3 calls from this number within a 4-hour span this afternoon. each time, i said "hello" and the caller hung up on me without saying a word. it comes up "international gateway" on my caller id. i am so glad for this board -- it has helped me to identify many mysterious calls as coming from telemarketers. they should be against the law. i don't think our founding fathers intended for "free speech" to extend to this kind of harassment.

He called my cell but I did not answer him, because this phone number was not knowing for me. He called at 4:14 pm today (July 11, 2008).

I just got a call from this number: the person spoke for about a minute in a very fast language that sounded arabic or something like that. No clue. SOunds like he was in mid-conversation with someone else.

A young man called our place yesterday - asking for Carmen. I said that there was NO Carmen at this number. So he paused for a moment - and then started trying to tell me something. I said to him, stop talking - I told you there was no Carmen at this number. I wound up yelling at him - and then slammed down the phone. It didn't help - it only raised my blood pressure. I am sure that there is some nice warm corner of hell waiting for that young man. I HATE telemarketers. Let them find some other way of earning a living that by torturing the rest of us.
Next time, I need to stay calm - and say - so how can I help you - while at that exact same time - hitting the button to disconnect the call.
Heh Heh Heh
