- jectionCalled me, too. Left no message.
I'm assuming a sales call. - m.j.moschkauThey called but when I answered there was no response. I tried calling back and the number cannot be reached. Based on other information, I was able to determine this is a group trying to sell an extended warranty for a car. Given it's not possible to call them, it's not a company I would deal with so to the BLOCKED CALLER list they go.

- Kellyraew| 1 replyI answered, and they told me I needed to extend the warranty on my 2013 Honda. I told them I already had the Cadillac version of warranties on it, and they abruptly HUNG UP on me.
- Cass replies to KellyraewYup! I told them I no longer had that vehicle (Dodge) and they hung up immediatly!
- Twin CitiesThey called again... caller id says SERVICE CALL, no area code showing. Left no message.
- Twin Cities| 1 replyReceived call from this number , no message left , I returned the call and got an automated service that said if I wanted to be moved to the "do not call list" to press #1

A lot of posters here complain they get many calls from scammers.
A few posters state they get hardly any.
Why the difference? Here are possible reasons:
The most common mistakes made by people who receive calls from unknown numbers:
Answering the phone. ◄▬ ◄▬ ◄- ◄▬
Instead of answering, let the call go to voicemail or answering machine. Legitimate callers will usually leave a message.
Pressing a number "to be taken off the list" ◄▬ ◄▬ ◄- ◄▬
That works for legitimate telemarketers, but legitimate telemarketers would not have called you in the first place, if you were on the DNC list. Pressing a number on a call from a telespammer merely confirms you answered the phone.
Returning the call.
At best, returning a scammer's call merely confirms your phone is "live", and your number will be added to a list that will be used by even more scammers. At worst, the call will cost you additional fees, if it is from a foreign country, such as Jamaica (876 area code). Also, scammers are now spoofing Caller IDs, so the number you see may not really be the number that called you. It might belong to an innocent, third party.
Arguing with the caller:
Call center employees have probably heard your argument many times. They may either continue to try to scam you, or they will hang up ... but will also make sure some other scammer calls your number, later.
Blowing a horn or whistle into the phone:
Will irritate the scammer. The scammer may then add your number as a "spoofed Caller ID", so others think YOU are calling them, and YOU may hear retaliatory horns or whistles if the irritated called person calls YOU back!
Forwarding the call to a government office.
Not too swift. All that does is tie up a line at the govt office, and record YOUR number as the forwarding number! Realize that your congress person knows phone scams are a problem, and also knows the FCC and FTC have been assigned the task of upholding the laws concerning this problem. Instead, you should report the problem via normal channels to the FTC or FCC.
Giving or forwarding the supposed scammer's phone number to other scammers.
May not be a good idea. The 1st scammer might have used a spoofed phone number, and, if you give it to other scammers, all you are doing is causing more calls to and problems for an innocent person.
- - - - - - - - - -
Eventually, after getting many scam calls, some people think their only recourse is getting a new number. That is not true. The "new number" is probably somebody else's "old number", and will come accompanied with its own baggage (and calls).

What you SHOULD do:
If you are disturbed by frequent calls from scammers / spammers. obtain a call blocker app, device, phone, or service. Google is your friend. Remember, the Do Not Call list is effective to prevent calls from registered telemarketers, but scammers / spammers ignore that policy.
Instead of answering, let the call go to voicemail or answering machine. Legitimate callers will usually leave a message. - abccalled this monrning, didn't answer. no vociemail

- Jannie Layne| 1 replyAnnoying - I am o the do not call list and it makes me so frustrated when they keep calling. I block the #'s but they just switch them up.
- AnonymousSpam call for an extended warranty for my car. Robo-call.
- Call type: Telemarketer
- Anonymous replies to Jannie LayneI get it. Me too. I started reporting these calls to the FCC. It's a pain, but maybe it will help.
- AnonymousCalled this morning, left no message. I'll be adding them to my blocked list after reading these messages. I never answer any calls I don't recognize, if they don't leave a message, it's likely a spammer.
