Who the heck is it

I received a call from them today.  I had previously completed their survey and requested to be taken off their call list.  Not only did the telemarketer refuse to take me off the list, but then insisted he would keep calling until I took their survey again.  The same telemarketer called back later that night asked for me by name then repeatedly said, "I love you"  in a low, creepy voice.  Completely inappropriate and rude.

This number calls a lot and I have answered once. It is a survey about fire alarms, I found it ti be very intrusive. I amused them because it was not personal questions, but the caller was definitely an Indian or someone from that area of the world and it is a number from Southwest Florida, like Ft. Myers or Naples. Almost like they were trying to scope out houses to rob or something though.

Got a call from this number and picked up. Said hello, heard a busy phone center in the background, a woman with an accent said hello as I hung up. No callback.

I received a call  about 6 hours ago.  Definitely an India accent.  I answered and they were asking if I wanted to f@&#!  I hung up.  Sick part is, this is my 98 year old Grandma's line and we are currently in Hospice!  Assh@&$#. Cannot get on a DNC list either!

Want to stop repeated telescam phone calls (on your phone, rather than the hospital's phone)?
Try these alternatives:

1.  Do not answer the phone if you see an unknown number on your Caller ID ... let it go to answering machine or voicemail.  Many telescammers hang up after three rings.

2.  If you have a smartphone, get one of the inexpensive or free phone blocker apps at your online app store, and learn how to use it.

3.  If your cell is not "smart", read the manual to learn how to set up a "group".  Assign the scammer's phone number to that group.  Also assign a "silent ring" to that group.  You will not hear future calls from that number.

3a.  Alternately, assign a "silent ringtone" as the DEFAULT ringtone.  Then, assign your favorite ringtones to friends, family, contacts, businesses, etc.  That way, you will not hear your phone ring, even if the scammer changes numbers!

4.  For cell phones or landlines: Contact your phone service provider.  They may have a facility or method to allow you to block numbers.

5.  If you buy things online, you might want to google "phone blocker" to see what devices or apps Amazon or other sites have to offer for landlines or smartphones.

6.  DO NOT call unknown numbers back!  Instead, read this:

Some low life foreign guy asking me survey questions, n i told him im not doing a survey and he said [***] u ok... i told him [***] u to [***] and i hung up

Sept. 25-2014
  This sick individual called me a couple of months ago and became nasty when I told him to take me off his calling list.
He was persistant and very angry when I would not give him my time, there was a female talking in the back ground.
Then this morning this same man with a foreign accent called again about taking a survey.  I recognized his voice and hung up on him and he called me back calling me vulgar names.  I responded by hanging up on him again.  He called back several times and I just hung up the phone and wouldn't listen to him.  I had to take the phone off the hook to stop him.
After reading other complaints against him sounds like he is not going to stop harassing me.   How can I stop him from calling me?

I have been receiving calls from this number and I want them to STOP! There is no identification, and when I call the # I get a recording saying "This is an invalid number. Please check the number and call again". I am elderly, ill, and depend on my phone -- these calls are a true nuisance!

CallerID says Name Unavailabl. Did not leave a message.

i received numerous calls from this number. He had an Indian accent and would ask me if I have smoke detectors in my home. I nicely asked him to stop calling and hung up... Every day and night he keeps calling.
Tonight he proceeded to call me names and insult me...

received a call today, caller stated I am not selling anything. She said it was a safety survey, I answered if I have smoke detectors then refused to answer further. She said" come on lady I am not trying to sell you anything"- I repeated I was not interested and to remove me from their list- she said "no I will call you later" I said "no" she said"F*** You" and hung up on me. Number is out of service when you try to call back.
BTW - I only answered because they call the house several times a day and I wanted them to stop.

I have gotten as many as five of these calls a day.  Today I tried to be polite to the man (self-identified as Francis), and asked to be put on a do not call list. He started screaming, "Do you think this is some do not call survey, you m-f?"  And he kept screaming M-F (the full words) for a moment, but slammed down the phone when I said, "Why Francis, do you kiss your mother with that foul mouth?"  

This man called my land line and called my wife by her name.  Creepy.  He has also called from 469.424.4444.  Same guy.  He left a message from this number and said he would call again and then said "seriously".  Sounds like we are in for a sh*t storm.  

Basically you can't. None of the government sites that are suppose to help will take the info but end up doing nothing which is why we still have the b$%$%%ds still calling. I don't bother spending money for these call blocking systems, the phone companies could do it if they wanted to but...... so I simply turn on the answering machine, set to 2 rings (this is so the Caller ID will show info) and let the machine take it.  I have a polite greeting programed in it in case it is a friend and continue on with whatever I'm doing -- also set your volume ring to low.  I have found that most of these annoying calls will stop after a few months of never getting an answer.  They often switch to a new number but again it goes to the answering machine. I also keep a list of these numbers just for the fun of it, had over 100 numbers but we moved and it was lost so I'm doing it again. I figure if the call is important, the caller will leave a message, if they don't, well ... tough!

WHAT I DO LET  IT GO ON MY ID AND THEN I CHECK THE NUMBER ON MY COMPUTER IF IT IS UNKNOWN . I AM VERY COMFORTABLE THIS WAY . PLEASE TRY IT .
