No one on the line

Several calls from (203) 489-0025.  I do not pick up as I do not recognize the number.  No I.D.

I tell you, we've disconnected our answering machine because of nonsense like these nut cases who refuse to leave messages anyway and we refuse to pick up for ANYONE who shows up on caller ID as UNIDENTIFIED.  Will these idiots EVER learn?  Land line calls here (Ohio) are nothing but SCAMS, PHISHING and PURE FRAUD.  On the other hand, my cell phone seems to be a magnet for DRUNKS calling a wrong number at 2:00 am. About to drop land line altogether.

They called today and I answered but put the phone on mute.  A woman said --rattled on, actually--that she was calling to make sure I can get the best rate for my electric.  She said my reading would be soon and she had my address, which she stated.  She then realized that no one was there, after she kept saying "hello, hello".  She finally slammed the phone down.

If I am home and want to answer, I always hit the mute button.  It's fun to beat them at their own game!!

They called after 8:00 p.m.

No message. I don't recognize number.

Likely this is a telemarketer.

I have this number registered with the do-not-call list!
