Left no voicemail.

Just got a call from this number: no message left.

No message. What I want to know is how they got my number in the first place. I do not give it out, I am on the no call lists, and my number is NOT publicly available.
Not to mention they are calling to try and collect on ALREADY PAID off debt from 15+ years ago.

Google your name and number, any place such as spokeo that shows up, make them remove it.

Do consider 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.

Called me several times. I'm horribly in debt though, so I'm not surprised. They are one of many callers, sadly :/

If any of you have an iPhone, then you can block any number you want by opening the call history and hitting the little "i" next to the number. At the bottom of the page you can select "Block this Number." and boom, it's blocked.
