Wrong. You can stop it several ways. If you have Sprint, as I do, you can block text, email, and voice calls by going on line and doing it yourself. Most major carriers now do the same thing. If you have a full feature or smart phone you can put unwanted calls on a no ringer. That sends the call to your voice mail. I currently have 50 numbers blocked.

The SCAMERs are getting better.  This was a call to my Verizon Cell Phone for free Home Security System.
Provide by Home Protection.  They gave me a call back Phone # of 877-225-4910.

But, what sounds like real person talking on the phone is actually a Robo response with caned human (in this case a female voice).  Shelby was the caller trying to see if you are interested in home protection services. Was evident when you ask the same question more than one time.
They were never able to answer  a question with a specific answer and that was the first clue that it was the "New Robo" dialer calling.  


Taking SCAMing to a new level - got to love it.

Only way to stop this is make the Phone Companies accountable.


By all means - this is a SCAM -

Got a call on my cell from this number at 5:50pm CST on 8/8/2013.  They left no message.  I also am on the DNC list.  They have to be shady telemarketers because I know nobody in this area code that would be calling me.

I am on the DNC list. I get a call from them daily about 7PM EST.  I just now called them back, and got a recording that the number is not in service.I looked on my CID  to see if I had taken the number down right, and I did. So I called a 2nd time, and again got the recording about the number not being in serice.

Left no message.
