248-164-7558

This number keeps calling me several times daily.  When I pick up to answer, they hang up.  This has been happening for weeks now since January 1, 2015.  I would like to report them.

I'm getting calls from this number several times a day. I answered once and no one spoke. It's very frustrating.

the following phone no keeps calling our business cell phones

248 164 7558
Omg they keep calling my house phone too!
Wtf

I  just got this call too , yesterday but when you go call them back says to check your phone # can call again. It is like they can call you but you can not call them back how strange.  Yeah we all need to report them. with so much fraud going on these days who knows what they are trying to do. These people need to get a real job and quit bugging the ones that have real jobs and do not have time for this [***]

They call then no one says anything

I am receiving this call also, almost daily.  It is so annoying because I work from home and it's rude and disrupts my productivity.  How can we make this stop?

Modern technology has given telescammers the tools to call you.
Since those telescammers are criminals, they ignore both the Do Not Call list and any request you might make.

Modern technology can also protect you, if YOU do a few simple things!
The most effective thing to do is to get a call blocking device, service or app.
Then, use it correctly.

Google "call blocker" for more information.  There are available apps (some free) for smart phones, and services and devices for landlines.

If you cannot use or afford such a tool, then:

• Do not answer calls from unknown numbers ... let them go to voicemail or answering service.  Telespammers usually hang up after 3 or 4 rings.

• Do NOT return calls from unknown numbers!  All that does is verify your phone number!  And, in some cases, those return calls may cost $20 or more to complete. If the incoming call was important, they would have left a message!

• If you have a "dumb" cell phone, assign the scammer's number to a group named "scam" (or similar).  Then, assign a silent ringtone to that group. (This also works for smartphones).

• Another option, for cell phones:  Assign a "silent ringtone" as DEFAULT.  Then, assign your favorite ringtones to all known friends / family / business numbers.  That way, you will hear rings ONLY from those you wish to contact!  You will not hear scammers' rings, even if they change their number!  (This is also called "whitelisting", and will cause you to miss calls from non-whitelisted numbers).

If you want to report potential fraudulent or scam calls, here are two pages of links to (mostly government) sites in Canada and the USA were you can report those scams, or learn more about them.

I received a call from this number about 7:30 last night didn't recognize the number and thought it was an odd number. I didn't even bother to answer it.'

They keep calling and the calls are un wanted. Annoying!

Slim, I didn't post but came on for the same reason as everyone else.  Thank you so much for giving the resolution. It was very nice to find out what to do. My phone has a blocker in it.  Why are these machines/people/whatever making these calls?

A male caller said they left a flyer on door with a picture of our house. Assumed it was a window installation company. I asked him to take me off their internal calling list. They have called back twice since then. Number is a spoofed number non existent number. Number is now blocked.

Invest in a call blocker.  Sentry's is $39 and works great.  Once they have your number they will never stop.  The caller ID they use is spoofed (phoney).  If you use your phone to block the number, their computer generates a new phoney caller ID and the call goes through.  Authorities know about this and so far have not been able to stop it.  The calls and complaints grow exponentially every year.

This number keeps calling our house and no one responds when we answer.  Quit Calling!

great information! Thanks for posting!
