My name is Reese Vargas and I am the rightfull owner of the Insurance Center of Chicago located at 3035 W. Irving Park Road, Chicago, IL 60618. It has come to our attention via a solicited individual that some telephone solicitation company is linking there offer of services to our agency. We have tried to determine who this party is, however, we can honestly say that we DO NOT SOLICT any business via telephone or HAVE NOT HIRED any third party to speak on our behalf. We ask that if you receive these calls that you ask the solicitor to please identify themselves and the company which they represent. If you have any additional information that would help us identify this party I ask that you contact me directly at 773.267.7200 x 1001.

Just got a call on my cell phone from this number. Didn't answer it. Left voice mail saying something about lowering my auto insurance. Added to the block list. These scum sucking turds need to croak themselves.

You are correct.
What To Do When You Get an Illegal Robocall; http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/microsites/robocalls
1. Hang Up. Do not press 1 or any other numbers to get off the list.
2. Consider blocking the number
3. Report it at http://www.fcc.gov/complaints
4. Report it at https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov
5. People should continually file complaints with their Attorney Generals office.
Register your phone numbers online at http://www.donotcall.gov or call (888) 382-1222 (must call from # you want removed).
I have greatly reduced the number of calls to my cell phones by going to my carriers website (Verizon) and they allow me to block up to 5 numbers for 90 days. Since these scum change numbers every 30 I have had a very peaceful time. Call me once shame on you, call me twice shame on me. I also put it in my contacts list under Scum Suckers and assign it NO ring tone so at least after the first call they won't bother me anymore (I have filled all of the numbers in each and am up to Scum Sucker 47 now). This is only a whack-a-mole solution however it is the only one I can offer.
The criminals behind this operation aren't going to pay attention to you asking to be removed from their list. Their calls cost them nothing and they can make a million of them a day so they have no intention of ever removing someone. When you press a key to talk to them all that is accomplished is to verify that they have a working number.
If you want to stop these calls then you need to dry up their revenue source. Your phone company is charging you a fee for caller ID. Your phone company pays the scammer for sending their caller ID information. Your phone company pays only a fraction of a cent per call and you pay $5 to $15 to your phone company. The scammers send out millions of calls per day which amounts to a significant amount of money however your phone company is charging a large amount to millions of customers. This may have something to do with the phone companies inability to stop these calls. You can also see why the criminals keep calling even though they know you won't fall for their scam. If someone does make the mistake of answering the phone and falling for their con then it is just icing on the cake for them. These people are the lowest form of filth on this planet.
In order to stop this we need legislation making it illegal to charge for caller ID. If a phone service wishes to operate it would need to provide the caller ID at no charge to other phone providers and to it's customers as part of the service. Here is the $50,000 solution that the FCC is looking for and it doesn't cost anything.
Civil action by the FTC against such criminals is totally ineffective. These criminals need to be charged with Federal Felonies and subjected to significant jail time. All of those involved know that they are violating FTC regulations. The FTC levies huge fines, then rescinds them based on inability to pay. The FTC settles for the minimal cash on hand, and enjoins them from future telemarketing. The criminals sign off, then go right back to business as usual. These same people under different companies have been sued in the past and have only paid a minimal fine. The government needs to go after them using the RICO act. That will be the only effective means of dealing with this.
Here is an excellent blog site that I found that explains how one company is getting away with this activity.

708-761-4459 called me today at 11:00 am, I didn't answer and it went to voice mail. Message was nothing but air for 1 second. I am on the DO NOT CALL list, but evidently this list is worthless. If I do not recognize the number, I DO NOT answer it, Best Defense so far!!

Robo call messages to all cell phones in family claiming "department of motor vehicle information that you are paying too much for auto insurance". Cell phones listed properly on no-call list. Number tracks back to Insurance Center of Chicago, 3035 W Irving Park Rd., Chicago, IL 60618. Never heard of them.

Called me initially, I picked up and no one answered. A few seconds later, called me back and I let it go to voice-mail. Voice-mail was nothing that lasted 1-second.
