We've been answering unknown calls as if we're a business for a while now.  ie: "XYZ Inc. May I help you?". Guaranteed hang up, and don't hear from them again!!  And...... it's cut down other calls considerably.  This was a rare one now on the caller ID, so thought I'd ck it out.

Got call today also:  It's about "Duct Services"
It offered the choice "Press 8 to be removed from list"
Since number is probably spoofed, how can the DNC registry help?

Just called and hung up on me when I answered too. They must be a service that tests to make sure these are legit numbers or something. Annoying. My phone is ringing off the hook today w/telemarketers and political calls. So frustrating.

PORTALES, NM.THAT
S ALL THAT SHOWED UP.DID NOT ANSWER AND THEY LEFT NO MESSAGE...HOPE IT WAS E.T.

Just called the number back.  "The number you have called is no longer in service...".  Another spoof/scam, apparently.

yeah -- maybe it is E.T. trying to phone home!!

In that case, E.T. called me today at 3:55 pm but he didn't leave a message.  The caller ID said "Portales, NM"

Received a call during the 1:00 hour pm. No message and I'm unable to locate any information on who this company may be.

Just got one from them.
Per DSPS:
Panasonic makes some phones that allow you to enter #s to block.
Doesn't magically know who are spammers, though.

"Portales, NM --- Annoying

Just got a call.  No message.  From "Portales, NM."  Another scam probably.  I don't understand why there isn't a problem yet where we can block phone numbers effectively.  Some box you hook up to your phone line and you blacklist all the scammers and telemarketing boobs.  Seems like a no brainner invention for someone so inclined.  I'd buy it.

not a clue! called and left no message. I don't know anyone from Roswell, New Mexico. Maybe it's an Alien who escaped his cell and is calling random humans for help? If he's got gas money and knows where his ship is, I'll help!
