This number is calling me a couple times a week, I guess.  I screen all of my calls so it is rare that I pick up.  They usually call around dinner time.  At first, it worried me because I had someone steal my credit card several months ago so I thought it was something to do with fraud but the one time I picked up, someone said, this is about your credit card and when I said I didnt' have one (which I no longer do...I closed all credit accounts after the problem I had), they simply hung up.  It seems to be a scam related to perhaps getting a credit card number or selling some BS related to credit cards.  Whatever it is, report these fools to the National "Do Not Call" website and your local state district attorney.  Whatever they are doing, it ain't good!

I keep getting calls too.  They never leave a message.  They have been calling 6 -8 times a night.  I am getting angry

Apparently its a scam! They are trying to get my credit card info for some gov grant package. I just told them that I have the package already and they stop calling. Its weird how when you call they always have a high volume of callers. WOW!!! Scam 100%

this number has called me at night and during the day. they wont leave a message and the area code wats up with that i know no on efrom new jersey. yeah this is a new jersey number. i am getting very angry.....!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am seeing people all over the web filing complaints about this number.  They have been harassing me as well.  They never leave a message and I have called back and made the request on several occasions to be added to their "DO NOT CALL LIST".  But that has been to no avail.  They have been calling me non-stop for the last 3 days.

THIS 973-210-7616 HAVE BEEN CALLING MY PHONE FOR ABOUT A WEEK NONE STOP.WHEN YOU ANSWER THE PHONE NO ONE SAYS A WORD. HOW CAN I FIND OUT WHO THIS NUMBER BELONGS TO?

No they are not collection agencies b/c I am not behind on a damn thing and these people from all sorts of numbers (other 973 area code numbers and 606 area code numbers and 905 area codes) are always calling. The best i can say is to call your service carrier and block the numbers. I ,myself, am having the same problem. I ignore the calls and don't show any attention and then block them. I wish they could be found and out in prision! They are scammers which I believe from scholorship sites, myspace, quiz sites etc.....

This number called me at 5 am and continued to call a couple times after.
I had to take out my phone's battery.

Anyone know if carriers can block specific numbers?

keep calling my cell phone several times a day

should have been Madison, New Jersey

I too got this number and even after 9pm which in my state is against the law. Here is what I am going to do. My attorney general (Michigan) has a site that you can file a complaint against them. I have done it before and it works great. They contact them and tell them to "knock it off or be prosecuted." Hope this works for you. I have no idea who this is but it is from Madison, NJ the caller id says. My number is not a cell phone either but a land line.

They are credit collection agencies. I am beind due to loss of a job, and they have been hired to try to collect.

Hey,
Why doesn't everyone just fill out their form and use THEIR Telephone number,

#973-210-7616!

This is another bogus act to try and steal our cell phone minutes.  No one in the customer service dept. ever answers.  People please register your #'s on the "Do Not Call List".  I started annoying them by doing the same thing, of course from another unavailable number.

I received 4 calls in the last hour. Needless to say I was heated. I mean heck I was trying to sleep. The last call I asked to speak to a supervisor the lady was like " Pertaining to what?" I said " Pertaining to you blowing up my f---ing phone multiple times in the last hour. I told her to take my name and number off the list and if I hear from them again I will be in touch with a lawyer for harassment.

these are the missed call times from friday 17 july 0236 0623 0948 1121 1347 1434 1538 1642 and 1729 then it stopped for awhile and started back up at 2008 and again at 2134 and 2221 and they dont leave a message then it stopped for a few days and i got another one at 1457 sunday afternoon it only rings once you go to answer it and the line is blank i cant even tell them to stop calling me

i keep getting calls from this number. it would ring once and stop. they would call in excess of 5-10 times a day i try to call the number back and it disconets after 1 second

I have been receiving calls from this number for over a month.  They call at all hours of the day and night, ringing the phone endlessly, waking us up on eastern time when we live in CDT.  Caller ID says they are from Madison New Jersey and since we do not know anyone from there, no one picks up the calls.
Want this stopped and have filed complaints with National DO NOT CALL REGISTRY but this has done NO GOOD.

We've been getting multiple phone calls from this number for about a week or so now...my husband finally decided to answer and see what it was all about.  The lady (from India?) said she was calling because we were interested in a gov't grant to start our own business.  She wanted mail some info out, but she needed a credit card number to cover the $1.98 postage.  When my husband said, "well, I don't have a credit card, what about you sending it to me C.O.D.?", she said they couldn't do that.  So, my husband said, "Well, I guess we're done here" and hung up.  Can you believe it...she called back!  This time I answered and told her to take us off their calling registry, and she kept telling me that she needed to talk to my husband again.

I got a bunch of calls from this place also with no one answering also so I called them back and they have option # 2 that you can place your number on the do not call list

I have been recieving calls form this number for a few weeks, didn't recognize the number so i didn't answer. So finally got tired of them calling and i answered it last weekend 7-12 and tried to explain to the lady that i was not interested in talking justwanted to tell them to stop calling me. she acted as if she didn't understand so i got angry and hung up. So the calls stareted again on monday, i turned my cell off for three days thinking maybe they would stop if they were getting sent directly to voicemail. NOT A CHANCE. Now here it is saturday morning and i am up and have been since 8 this morning trying to figure out why this number is calling my phone every 5 minutes for the past two hours. there is another number associated with these same peopleit is 973-577-7993 hopefully someone will shut these people down and soon.

I have Verizon Wireless.  If you have nuisance calls from any number, just call Verizon and they will "BLOCK THE NUMBER" from calls or texts.  I had the same problem calls all day and night. It's gone with the Block.

My phone has rang no less than 30 times today from this number.  They can annoy me all day long but I won't pick up the phone.

7 times in 1 hr. DO YOU FREAKIN BELIVE IT!!!!!!!!!

yeah these idiot's keep calling,  I think its a SCAM i answered actually talked to some lady sounded like philipino accent and asked how I would like to pay 1.98 s/h fee to I said cash & she repeated my address I told her to send info click hung up...

HEY EVERYONE CHECK OUT PRIVACYRIGHTS.ORG FOLLOW THERE LIST OF THINGS TO DO , IF EVERYONE DOES THIS WE MAY BE ABLE TO FILE HARRASMENT AGAINST THE OWNER, 1ST STEP CONTACT YOUR LOCAL LAW ENFORCMENT CENTER TO FILE A COMPLAINT AGAINST THIS PHONE #. PLEASE ADVISE....

I too have had problems with this number and have been put on a nationwide no call list.  I am on the verge of suing Verizon because I have asked them to block it. So why am I paying huge fees for harrassment.  They call at all hours of the night.  I have an elderly mother and getting these calls at 2 am makes my blood pressure go up thinking she is in the hospital.

This number has called me maybe 10 times in the past 5hours. I dont pick up numbers I dont know, so I came on the computer when I had a chance to look it up.and what do ya know its a telemarketer. I cant believe these people are so rude as to call so many times, i cant wait till they call back so I can flip out!!!

I got 23 calls in one day. The last one I answer I got someone from India I think. He said I gave this number for information on some product but I could not understand what he said. All I know is that I never give my phone # out for product info I only give my email otherwise I do not continue the request for information

1-973-210-7616 keeps calling, no one there, sure would like to trace it to an address so I could fly out there and rip there equipment out !!!!!
