I have decided its time for war on telemarketers. Heres what I am doing.1. I write down all of the numbers that call me.2. On the computer I find Sweepstakes , Vacations , and other Entries that require phone numbers.3. Input a bogus name and address + the telemarketers Phone number.These people on the Entry sites will bug the who ever's number they get plus distribute or sell the numbers to other telemarketers. The last number I got that was legit , I entered into 10 sweepstakes , 5 vacation bargains sites , and 2 other shady internet sites.

Great idea. I put a block on my cell phone when I get one but they change numbers so I have several blocked. Just an additional reminder to everyone:: If you get a call and they ask, Can you hear me now? Don't say yes as it is a scam to record your voice and sign you or someone else for whatever. My husband saw it on tv and told me and that very day, I got a call. Now I let the voice mail get the calls if I don't recognize the person calling. I am on the Do not call register but somehow they still manage to get through.

Now THAT is a killer app.I wish there was a website (maybe there is?) that, if you enter the telemarketing number, 5000 phones calls will be made (at least if it's toll-free).

Now what was that girl's name in account services that keeps calling me?

Chances are the telemarketers are using autodialers, and if you call, you aren't going to get a person. You might get a menu

If it's a live person, you can ask them to put you on their do not call list. I'm not sure if that applies to charities, but for-profit businesses have to put you on the do not call list if you ask.

it goes something like I do not accept calls from numbers that do not identify themselves.

You are an EVIL man I gotta try it:)You could also, take their call, continue to ask questions, act really dumb (or not act and just be yourself.....lol) Tie up THEIR phone line. Hang on till they hang up. Look at it as public service. You may have just saved a gullible old person from being hoodwinked
