Recorded message looking for someone who use to have my phone number.
They are a bill collector.
I told them that this person no longer has this number but they keep calling back.

No, Mitt has dignity and class. This is more Barack Obama's style.

On Friday, August 24, 2012 at 10:07:01 PM ? I received a call that was in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 - or TCPA (Google that ? wikipedia has a nice summary). My voice mail recorded a 0:02 minutes voicemail message from (866) 822-2556 that was nothing but dead air.
A comment at http://mrnumber.com (a report-a-call site) says this number belongs to http://www.flsconnect.com, a political contact and fundraising outfit. This is also reported at 800notes.com
Other than the above, a search for the number (at http://www.dogpile.com - which searches on multiple search engines, including Google and Yahoo Search) finds only report-a-call sites, reverse number look-up sites (vague info until you pay a fee) and sites promoting various telephone services. OH, yeah, and one site where part of a part number matches part of the telephone number.
A word of caution here: I have formed the opinion that, since the related laws lacks teeth (some actually PREVENT you from fighting back!), some blackguards actually use the National Do Not Call Registry as a SOURCE of people to call! (Confirmed at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Do-Not-Call_Implementation_Act ? ?Known exceptions?). As the TCPA already prohibits telemarketing firms from calling cell phones, do NOT list your cell phone with the National Do Not Call Registry - you are only opening the door to MORE unsolicited calls.
FIGHT BACK! The only effective way I have found to fight back, short of getting a lawyer, is ? and this works fairly well ? to never answer a call where you don?t recognize the caller ID, let it go to voice mail. THEN, and this is the kicker, record an SIT (special information tone) ? you know, those musical tones that precede the ?The number you have reached - - ? messages when you call a number that is out of service (google ?SIT Tones? ? find a site that actually has them available!) Then make your own voice mail message like this ? be sure to warn your friends and legitimate contacts: Record the tone into your voice mail greeting, followed by your own voice saying ? mimic the phone company ? ?The number you have reached, (your phone number) does not accept telemarketing calls. Everybody else, please leave your name and number at the tone and I?ll call you back ASAP.?
I have used this technique in the past and it usually causes the auto-dialers and telemarketers to automatically take your number off their lists before they get past ?the number?. It may take two or three calls before it works, and they may try again in a month or three, but eventually they stop calling.

I am thinking about calling 888-635-3243 ? they advertise ?Get $1,000 for abuse. Get Free Legal Help? I haven?t checked them out yet, but I sure would like to find a lawyer interested in tracking and prosecuting those who violate the TCPA! I have a maximum size list of blocked calls on my cell phone that I would LOVE to submit for prosecution. At $1,000 per award, just think about the money I could get from each case that was won in my favor!

Get a call from this number at least once a day. Nobody speaks. So annoying.
| San Diego Native 2012-08-20 23:50:51 Unknown |

FLS Connect fundraisers for political and non-profits. Call the number back and add yourself to their do not call list. I just finished calling them ten times just to irritate them as much as they irritate me!
Hope it works
