I have been receiving calls from this company (AFNI Debt Collection) for a year since I got a new phone number. They use an auto-dialer to make 8 to 10 continuous calls every day and tie up my phone. They are looking for someone I do not know. I have spoken with them several times and given them this information. The numbers they have called me from are: (866) 352?045?8, (603) 246-5167, (857) 254?818?7, (857) 254?824?7, (857) 254?824?8 and (877) 859?877?9. I've contacted the FTC and the Attorney General in my state and they have been unable to help me. Today I had enough!!! I have the ability to block phone numbers with my Comcast service and I have done this but when they use the autodialer to call multiple times it ties up my phone number if a family member is trying to call me. I use a headset to get/receive hands-free calls so today I spent a couple of hours redialing the last number they called me from and putting my phone on mute. When they answered I just let them hang there going "Hello? Hello?" until they hung up and then I would immediately redial them and do the same thing again. They have caller ID and I was evidently reaching the same boiler room call center so after the first hour I'd reached every employee in the room. If they keep calling me I will do this for as long as it takes to get them to stop calling me.

Called to be a third party collection agent for AT&T for an outstanding account for a number that is not mine.

Some one is calling saying, "This an attempt to collect a debt". They want me to return a call, but I keep getting a recorded message telling me to leave a message. I wiil talk to them if they would answer the phone.

These bottom feeders call at 8:00 am on a Sunday morning no less, leaving taped messages for someone who isn't me (I have no debt). I get repeated messages on my answering machine, and when I attempted to call back I still got a taped message. This kind of harassment should be illegal!!! I am also on the do not call list.

They won't
Ask for any person in this house and they don't
Have a company name just any numbers

Got a call from this number. It went to voicemail. They did not leave a message but you could hear background noise. Very annoying!!!!!!!!

This is a debt collection service.  If you have your name listed as a first initial and last name, you probably get called all the time....  Example....  They are looking for a George Jones....  They call every G. Jones in the phone book and leave that message....   If you call them back and give them your number they will stop calling....  When they ask for George, tell them that NO George Jones lives here, please remove me from your call list....  That's the only way to stop them....  Either that, or you need to pay your past due bill!!

Have been getting calls from this number everyday, several times a day.  No message is ever left.  Comes up as Toll Free on Caller UD.

This number calls each and every day.  Even if you answer, all they say is my mothers first name and that is it.
If the machine picks up it only says my mothers first name without any other message.
It is extremely annoying to say the least considering my mother is in the hospital on life support
When I call the number back, there is no answer and all I hear is an echo of my own voice

How do I block this number from calling

Another call today. No message left. If I don't know the number, I don't answer nor call it back.

This company has called me several times a week for as many months.  They do not mention the persons name who owes the debt but I know it is not me.  I don't answer the calls but they don't give up trying.  I heard this was a scam by people trying to obtain information for identy theft.  Be careful..........

Definitly not for me

There is a 7 year statute of limitations they obviously do not understand. After 7 years..its basically tough s***!

Another call on Aug. 7.  No message was left. Came up as Toll Free call.

They keep calling me but leaving no message. If I don't know the number I don't answer. If it's important enough I feel as though they should leave some kind of message. I am on the do not call list, too, but that ONLY refers too 800 numbers ~ 866, 877, etc. ~ you have to have a special adapter to block those calls. It's quite expensiverfrom what I've heard; that's why I don't have one. No one can make me answer my own phone.

Still getting calls from this number, last one on July 12 @12:44PM. Toll free Call.   No message was left.

I got a new phone # from a a different service and I'll be damned.These vultures left a message within ten minutes of the service being on stating they were debt collectors. Didn't say who they were calling for but I know it wasn't me. Thank GOD for phonetray. They'll be blocked!

looking for someone that's is NOT me. Stop calling my number when you know you have the wrong number!

Got three calls from this number on May 6, no message was left.  Got two calls this morning already, the first around a little after 8 and the second a little after 9.  No message was left.  Caller ID says Name not found.

I kept getting this call as soon as I signed up for google voice app.  Then, one day, I had a missed call on my cell and when I called it back it was the same thing.  I wanted to find out why they were calling so I waited for someone to answer.  They asked my phone number and then said that I already reported that I don't want calls because my number is not on the list and then hung up immediately.

Frequent calls from this number about a debt I supposedly have (I don't have any).  Call the number and you get put on hold.

Acme started calling and leaving messages several months ago, 7 days a week from 8am to 9pm.  However, I know of no one with the name that they are trying to reach.   They leave several different versions of the message related to debt collection.  I don't take calls or return calls to anyone who has no business with me.  It's really quite annoying.  I am on the do not call list.

Another call from this number again.  No message left.  I have a Panasonic phone model that has a feature to block frequent unwanted calls.

This caller was a recording asking for my father who has passed away 1 1/2 years ago.  I am on the do not call list.

I get calls from this number weekly and I have no idea who they are or what they want.  No message is ever left.  I don't answer calls from numbers I don't know nor call them back.

I get this call at least once a week.Ilooked up the no & it was pure garcina camosia.sure wish you could do something.

Sheriff's Department has been given the number for this prank caller.

Called my cellphone that I use primarily for business.  Left a message of dead air.  Called 8pm.
