Asking political questions.

They called multiple times in one night and would let it ring three times then **** up and try a***n 10 minutes later. I finally answered it and it was a robo political questioner for my area. They asked state, and local questions. I think it was the local GOP because I'm splitting my ballot and the moment I responded with a I'm voting Dem here, it ***g up.

They call all the time, after receiving my answering ma****e a number of times, they **** up on the third ring.

Nothing that you do will stop them from calling you. The major players behind this have made millions of dollars, which means that they are too big to fail. One of the major players specializes in aiding the rich with tax evasion and shell corporations set up in Belize. You can bet that the well to do in this country are not getting lower your credit card interest rate calls and due to that fact our government just considers a few phone calls a minor annoyance. The FCC has temporarily halted 5 of the minor unprofitable boiler rooms. They will receive a slap on the wrist and be back at it within a few days. In the meantime the calls will continue since the major money is being made with what is called a CNAM revenue-sharing program through companies like http://www.telephonemanagement.net In their own words: 'Every day your company makes thousands of outbound phone calls. Every one of those calls generates revenue for many companies, why not yours? Our CNAM revenue-sharing program helps you make money every time a Caller ID request is made by a phone carrier. A high-traffic call center can lose ***dreds to thousands of dollars a day to phone carriers by allowing them to charge for access to your own data.' Why hasn't the FBI used the RICO act and gone after this organization? On October 15, 1970, the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (18 U.S.C. §§ 1961–1968), commonly referred to as the 'RICO Act', became United States law. The RICO Act allowed law enforcement to charge a person or group of people with racketeering, defined as committing multiple violations of certain varieties within a ten-year period. The purpose of the RICO Act was stated as 'the elimination of the infiltration of organized crime and racketeering into legitimate organizations operating in interstate commerce'. S.Rep. No.****, 91st Cong., 1st Sess. 76 (1968). However, the statute is sufficiently broad to encompass illegal activities relating to any enterprise affecting interstate or foreign commerce. You can now see why the criminals keep calling even though they know you won't fall for their scam. If someone does make the mistake of answering the phone and falling for their con then it is just icing on the cake for them. These people are the lowest form of filth on this planet. The only way to stop this is to contact the FBI and ask why this crime family is allowed to operate and facilitate the ongoing criminal operations. This is one of the reasons that the RICO act was put in place, so why aren't they using it. Is this because this isn't a high profile, news worthy operation or is the FBI too understaffed and busy with Homeland Security issues. Maybe if we were rich they would take this seriously, but then if we were rich we would be using that criminal organizations services and protecting them instead of trying to shut them down. It is alleged that they launder money from Pacific Telecom through a trust bank account in Oregon and into foreign accounts at Scotiabank in Belize and other destinations. Any criminal activity can be reported to the FBI here: https://tips.fbi.gov Report it at http://www.fcc.gov/complaints Report it at https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov People should continually file complaints with their Attorney Generals office. There is a blog site that has information on one of these operations: http://telemarketerspam.wordpress.com

Got a phone call (11:44am) from an out-of-state number that I didn't "know" or recognize, while in church. (Does this mean that they are involved in Interstate Fraud?) They, of course, left no message. As always, I didn't answer, but looked up the number here. I am on the National Do-Not-Call List, and have been for over a year now. (I guess this is our government at work for us.) I'm going to http://www.fcc.gov/complaints AND to https://complaints.donotcall.gov/complaint/complaintcheck.aspx and see if that can get the government to work for me, and stop these calls. (Yes I will go through all those steps.) [I have also bookmarked these URL's.] I have also****igned a silent ringtone to this number. (I'm up to 41 now.) We should all pile on.

they called today at 1:15pm and it was a recorded message about winning a free cruise. Not sure how they got my #. There was no opportunity at the end to advise them they violated the Federal DC registry for spam calls. However I did file a complaint on their # online www.donotcall.gov
