    Have you considered obtaining a call blocking device, app, or phone?  Google (or your favorite search engine) IS your friend!
    Realize that the Do Not Call list is NOT a call blocker!

    Here are some tried and true methods for reducing or eliminating repeated spam / scam phone calls:  Click on the Info link, below, to see them

    Info
    Want to stop repeated telescam phone calls?
    Try these alternatives:

    1.  Do not answer the phone if you see an unknown number on your Caller ID ... let it go to answering machine or voicemail.  Many telescammers hang up after three or four rings.

    2.  If you have a smartphone, get one of the inexpensive or free phone blocker apps at your online app store, and learn how to use it.

    3.  If your cell is not "smart", read the manual to learn how to set up a "group".  Assign the scammer's phone number to that group.  Also assign a "silent ring" to that group.  You will not hear your phone ring if that number calls you again.

    3a.  Alternately, assign a "silent ringtone" as the DEFAULT ringtone.  Then, assign your favorite ringtones to friends, family, contacts, businesses, etc.  That way, you will not hear your phone ring, even if the scammer changes numbers!  (Disadvantage: if you forget to whitelist somebody, you won't hear their calls, either)

    4.  For cell phones or landlines: Contact your phone service provider.  They may have a facility or method to allow you to block numbers.

    5.  If you buy things online, you might want to google "phone blocker" to see what devices or apps Amazon or other sites have to offer for landlines or smartphones.

    6.  DO NOT call unknown numbers back without checking who called (800notes is your friend)! All that does is verify your number is "live".  Instead, read this:
    http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/blog/one-ring-cel ... ing-your-wallet

    7.  Consider picking up the phone, then immediately hanging up.  A "real" caller will usually  call you again, within seconds.  A robocaller will not.

    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.

    1.  Look elsewhere on this page (probably to your right) for the Article, "Where to Report Phone Crime"

    2.  For a more frequently updated site, look here:

    For info on FTC and communication initiatives to stop robocalls and other illegal calls, click "FTC", below.

    FTC
    The FTC and top communications companies met, to determine what they can do to stop robocalls and other illegal calls.  Here is a link to a frequently updated page, showing the history and progress of their initiatives, as well as recent Congressional bills and industry implementations.

    http://www.phonehelp.2truth.com/initiatives.html

    (I strongly suggest you read the history and progress of
    H.R.2669 - Anti-Spoofing Act of 2015
    and
    S.2558 - Spoofing Prevention Act of 2016
    to learn how [slowly] bills progress through our Congressional system.)

    Caller ID showed:  DENNIS H.   Don't know who it was.  My landline is protected by a call blocker unit. They didn't follow the instructions from my call blocker so it blocked the call automatically.

    I didn't pick up, but they left a long voicemail message about this being the last chance I had to cancel out my student debt.  Since I had my college 55th reunion last year, this sounded pretty ridiculous.  They are obviously blind calling with a scam.

    Caller stated "This is Jackie Armstrong in the enrollment department,.... but my underwriter Kasandra tried to reach out to you to help you finish up your application with your student loans. We are the enrollment center for your student loan program. When a file reaches my desk I take that very serious....  I have not heard back from you I'll go ahead and cancel that out 949-478-5815. I would hope that you are not being stirred in the wrong direction by your servicer- as you know they are all being sewed and not giving you the right information.

    Thats the guys name. Claimed to be from the student loan center. He has called 3 days in a row. If you want to deal with these types of people get about 20 helpers and call him non stop for a hour and leave him aggravating voicemail. Call him a hacker and a stalker. Be imaginative and creative. Nothing will be done by reporting him so use his tactic and call call call.

    I tried calling the number back and it is a google voice number.  In theory, some government officials could track this person down and put them in jail based on their gmail address and isp, but in reality we all know nothing will ever happen to them.  I seriously wonder about te people who would fall for this obvious scam.  You have to know that first almost anyone who calls you is a scam unlesss you really know them.  They leave a generic message on voicemail.  They are just blindly calling everyone hoping that a few idiots will fall for the scam and give them their s.s. number, name, date of birth, credit card number, etc., and then they will rip them off. Second, student loans are rarely ever forgiven, and they sure aren't going to reach out to you to forgive your loan.

    It just seems in the modern world that everyone would know by now that you never under any circumstances give out any personal information to anyone who calls you because it is almost always a scam.  It would seem to be a very difficult way to make a living these days.
