    • I get the 2 call routine often. Usually the first number calling is an area code of: 800, 866 or 877 which the caller I.D. shows "TOLL FREE CALL". I don't answer and after a few rings it stops.

    • BigA replies to OZ-IL on 27 Apr 2021 Exactly why everyone keeps saying about starting a "class action suit (they actually say suite)". They love those big payouts they get after 4 to 5 years. A class action suite is where the lawyers stay while they are lawyering the class-action suits.

    • This won't slow down illegal sales calls, off topic here. The SCotUS has only removed a foolish narrow exemption placed 4.6 years ago.
