    They've called me five or six times over the last few weeks.  I don't speak enough Spanish to know what they want.  They know my name, though.

    Got a call same issue as above.  

    Maybe the trick is having peoople call them back.  Maybe you get a bill for calling the 500 number?  Does anyone know?

    I have regularly received calls from this number.  One or two times a day for the last week or so.  Each call is loud burst of static, then either silence, or a voice in Spanish saying "bueno, buenas tardes" and then I think something about "calling from company about [...]" something or other.  When I don't answer, it goes to voicemail, again either a message of only the static and then no words, or the same intro.  And I can't call them back because the number is invalid to call.  Como se dice "Stop calling me"

    They regularly call me. Tonight I answered in Spanish and they went on a rant about me winning a free calling card that will allow me to call here and there blah blah blah.  They asked me if I wanted it and they had my address already.  I did not give them any information and they said they will be mailing me the card in 2 days.  At the end of the conversation, the woman gave me an 800 number to call if I had any questions, except she read it out to me at a million miles and hour and abruptly hung up.  All I got was the 800.  When I get the car, I will come back and write all the info and maybe we can ID who these idiots are.

    I went to the 500 website (www.500plus.com) and read their policy regarding (500) Vanity numbers.  Number one reason for being suspended is SPAM.  Then immoral, pornographic stuff.  I suggest all of you that want to ID these people write an email in their "contact" page detailing that this number (500)500-5000 is being used for spam and perhaps they will be busted.  I doubt it since they would loose money on these very expensive accounts.

    Same thing here.

    We have a Spanish last name and I do speak Spanish as a 2nd language (my husband is Latino) but not my native language - so I don't like to mess with telemarketers who are fast talkers. I have a hard enough time with the English speaking ones! ... So when a telemarketer calls asking if I speak Spanish sometimes I fib and pretend that I don't... Anyway, I tried this tactic with the 500-500-5000 people and they just hung up on me. I thought that was the end of it but they still call. Like everyone else said, sometimes it's a static sound.

    To say "Don't call me again!" you can say "No me llamas otra vez!" (Pronounced: No may yamas o-tra bays) ... Somehow I don't think this will be effective, but good luck... If they call again I may pick up the phone and scream at the top of my lungs into the phone just to mess with them. LOL.

    Here are some other fun phrases:
    "Tu madre tiene un bigote!" (Your mother has a mustache)
    "No me jodas!" (Don't bother me)
    "Un burro sabe mas que tu!" (A donkey knows more than you)

    ...Have fun! ;)

    I have been getting the same calls from them since November 2007. They stoped for a couple of weeks when I threatened them with the police. I filed a complaint with do not call registry but got no where with them. I talked to FCC today after receiving yet another call from them and they  told me to file a complaint on their website.  I am going to do that now.

    They stated calling here yesterday according to my wife. I got a call this morning and answered, they sounds like they were on the moon. Said something, I couldn't make it out, then I heard a bunch of static followed by nothing. I hava hispanic last name and am assuming most if not all posters here do too. I'm looking forward to there call back and have a couple responses set a side for them. Here's an example.

    usted extremo loco
    and
    usted mató a mis padres

    PS - My caller Id said "Special Acce XX" , initially I thought it was my brother calling from Iraq.. Glad I found this forum and I look forward to their next call. I will be ready this time. ha ha
