call for a business matter

Got a computerized call saying personal business matter, not a telemarketer. No option to remove from calling list.

My telephone number is UNLISTED for a reason.  I DO NOT ACCEPT TELEPHONE CALLS FROM PEOPLE I DO NOT KNOW unless *I* have specifically invited them to phone me (e.g., a potential employer, legal advisor, someone following up on a request *I* initiated, etc.).  So *IF* you have my telephone number it MUST mean you have my postal address as well.  IF you really need to contact me, particularly for a "business matter", DO IT IN WRITING via USPS FIRST CLASS NORMAL (uncertified) MAIL.  I did not at any time, nor do I now, consent to being telephoned and I WILL NOT ANSWER CALLS FROM UNFAMILIAR NUMBERS, PARTICULARLY THOSE THAT LEAVE NO VOICEMAILS OR VOICEMAILS WITH INSUFFICIENT IDENTIFICATION INFORMATION.  Finally, even if you do identify, if I don't know you I am not likely to speak to you.  If you have given me reason to distrust you in the past -- such as inaccurate information attempting to manipulate me -- you will NEVER have a voice audience with me, PERIOD.  GIVE IT UP or you will be reported to the appropriate authorities.

p.s. -- I am on the National DO NOT CALL registry and have been on there for YEARS.  And if you are a debt collector of some sort -- though as far as I know (a) I only have one debt; and (b) you are not them --  this is harassment and will not be tolerated -- you WILL be sued.  Have a day!!!
