425-484-1885, left no message,
I don't answer calls from people I don't know, or numbers I don't recognize

Just got call from 4254841885, no message left...thanks for the heads up.

This is a telemarketer for home security systems, "let us place a sign in your yard and we will give you a free home security system." These are just more telescabs trying to part you from your money.

When you get calls from numbers like this that you don't recognize, lift the receiver for a fraction of a second to trip the ringing, and HANG UP! The central office will return a “fast busy” to the caller. This works almost as well as a “SIT Disconnected” recording to get you off of the telescammer’s call list.

Never EVER say anything, or push any buttons on your phone! The caller WILL know they have a “live” person, and they will KEEP CALLING!

left a message wanting to install a security system in my home.

I've done that several times in the past and always get the same reply from FTC they can't do a thing just block them

The way the these scams work is there are companies that manage the Caller ID database. Whenever a call is placed your phone company uses one of these databases in order to display the incoming call on your phone (Caller ID). Your phone company pays these companies for the use of their caller ID database. It's cheaper for them to pay another company than maintain the caller ID database themselves. Your phone company is billed, a fraction of a penny per access to the database, each month by these companies based on how many times they accessed the caller ID database. You pay a fee each month to cover the cost for the phone company but you pay much more to the phone company then the phone company pays to the caller ID database companies.

So, the caller ID company makes millions by using telemarketing companies to auto-dial as many numbers as they can in a day. Each time the auto-dialer finds a match in the caller ID database it charges the phone company for the use of their database. The phone company makes millions by adding an additional fee to your phone bill and consumers lose millions because we are paying the added fee. It's a scam. This is why the Do Not Call list is useless. The phone companies have bought off the politicians to not enforce the laws. Think about it. If the NSA can track every phone call made and find a terrorist in the haystack don't you think they can track down a company that makes millions of calls a day in violation of the Do Not Call list?

The only way to stop this is to cancel your caller ID subscription. Once the phone company realizes that consumers have figured out the game they will put a stop to it.

Also, when the auto-dialer calls your number and your number is not in the caller ID database they do not bill the phone company for that transaction so it's a waste of their time and resources to continue to call you. Now that does not mean they will stop calling you but I suspect that after a couple of months the fact that your number does not have caller ID will work its way through their system and eventually your number will be removed.

As far as the free vacation or lower interest on your credit cards, if they get a sucker on the line to bite that's just a bonus. The real money is in the caller ID database fees.

I personally have a fax machine connected to my line that picks up on the 4th ring. It has reduced the number of calls I receive considerably.

I just got a call from this #. I don't answer the phone to any # I don't recognize. I have an answering machine to screen calls. Everyone I know knows to start talking & if I'm home I will pickup. Sometimes I answer & say F~~~Off & hang up. LOL!!!  It's too bad a lot of people out there fall for these scams.

Thats  BS Cal;ling back only confirms they have an Active number and a sucker willing to do as thje recording says. Do Not make call backs to any number theinking they will remove you from robo-dial. If they are going to VIOLATE the LAW  by calling you even with a recorded call .They are not taking the time to remove callers. Take a look at any of the litigation against these callers and you will see that they do NOT remove numbers from their Data bases unless FINED and the RECORDS turned over to the DOJ. Only then will the number be removed when the DOJ has their databases..they don't delete numbers because they sell and rent out these databases to other  telemarketing companies...
