- Tamianth replies to Awesome FaceConsider buying a call blocking device or phone. Many are around $50.00 and can block up to 1500 numbers. If its a cell phone, some already have call blocking, if not, there are free apps on the web that will work for some. You can google this. If you have a smart phone, there is a free app called call control. Iphones appear to have apps also. Another one is called Mr. Number.

- konyangoI just got a call from +12026004299, i recieve it and its an IVR machine asking personal questions on internet usage patterns and what i use the internet for...then the call disconnects after following the istructions. Any idea what this is all about and the organisation involved?
- obFolks be very careful. I was tried to be trapped by someone pretended to be calling from IRS. A foreign accent goon was on the phone and appeared to talk and take directions from lady boss and telling me she is very strict, I said why can't she talk to me, then he said she left : ) The lady had perfect accent my guess it was a recorded voice. Since I had no issue so I knew what is he up to. Reported to Police. Received few few similar calls first messed with them by showing scare then enjoyed trashing the goons as much I could. If u receive such calls, don't be scared just mess with the guys and curse as much as you can :)
- robin replies to Philrec'd same message from 932 area code but instructing me to call the 202-864-1217 number. very sad that some people cannot be honest and work for a living. we should pray for them.
- KaRina Mia replies to tobyHad me laughing out loud with your post

- disco_y2k replies to JaymeIt makes me very happy I could help :) I posted the physical address and direct phone number to the office in charge of the operation of the calls in one of the first posts if you need it.

PLEASE, quit posting about these calls and complaining, I spent alot of time tracking these people down. I posted physical addresses, down to the office suite and direct phone number to the real person's desk in charge of the calls. JUST call the guy and say STOP calling me. I can not stress enough the impact it has when you call an administrator of a scam directly at their direct phone number and ask to be removed from the list! It is a business people, when you call him, he knows you found the source, it is in his best interest TO MAKE SURE you get no more calls because you know who he is!
It has been over 2 years since I gave you people this information and is still 100% accurate. Read the back logs, my battle started when Political Media Inc. started calling myself and my mother up to 20 times an hour. I took them down a peg by exposing them. Make the call to the corp. office, NOT to one of the spoofed numbers and you will stop getting the calls within 1 hr. Again, its a business, they scam thousands of people, taking 1 person off the list so they do not make waves is a priority to them!

Do consider maybe getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $50.00 or so.If its a cell phone, some already have call blocking, if not, there are free apps on the web that will work for some. You can google this. If you have a smart phone, there is a free app called call control. Iphones appear to have apps also. Another one is called Mr. Number. - WolfmanJack replies to foxyb| 1 replySo you decided to post 876 number in a forum that is clearly titled 202 phone calls? Obviously you either have reading comprehension problems or you simply are trying to disrupt the thread. My guess is the latter.
