Don't answer any call that you don't know who is calling . Once answered you are a live number . They generate lists of live numbers to be recalled at a future date . This is all metta tracking done by a computer program , that never , eats , sleeps or takes a break . Numbers dialed daily 20 to 30 thousand . Block em and the computer just adds you to the next list . ( it will buy you some time ) This is all predicated on their hit ratio . They are having success because sometimes you are spoofed into answering . They know every trick in the book and program the robo dialer that way . The phone company and the people who used to care about your privacy , they get paid for every call the robot dials . Why would they want the marketers to stop calling ? The only time they stop those numbers is when the marketers move on or and fail to pay their phone bill . Funny , they just sign up with one of the hundreds of small independent carriers who are desperate to grow , and just want to be able to collect revenue from the marketers . Vicious cycle , but hey it is a job for someone . Good legit marketers are feeling the pinch as they have to call you at some point because you asked them to . When they call , if their number is blocked or it is a cell number , you don't answer , and there you go , you missed a call you solicited. Phone blockers are pretty good , but the computer dialing does not give up . They just program in more numbers . They know better than the rest of us that the " Do Not Call List " is a joke . The new way to live is to learn how to cope with this crap , don't let it upset you , you are dealing with bullys and you have to laugh it off when they catch you picking up a spoofed call , so laugh hang up and hit the button on your call blocker . You and me are not going to put them out of business , who knows maybe you daughter or son is coming out of college with no job prospect and they will work for these people . I laugh when I think about all those Chinese cell phones going off with robo calls . Yes you telemarketers , scam artist , and trolls , China is your growth market , uhh u no speak Chinese ? No problem , you hang up on most people any way . I would also like you to know that the scammers come and read and post on sites like this all the time . If gives them hope that they are reaching a targeted market . So some of this stuff you read is well , them . If u need more ideas call me I'm in the DNCL . Bye now and have a nice day .
