Reply #21: I used to get them several times a day

I got on the "do not call list" and an unlisted number at my wife's request, but as the calls are random, these methods are useless. What I really hated was when I'd play along just to get a person on the phone to complain to, and they would ask for my phone number so I could be "removed" from their call list. "Phone number? YOU CALLED ME!"

The do not call list didn't stop the calls right away, but it was a great conversation starter with these parasites. If you get these calls, drop these two phrases: DO NOT CALL LIST and ATTORNEY GENERAL. It worked for me.
