Criminals, foreign country's, scammers, frauds and illegal telemarketers .. criminals don't obey laws. The DNC works as it is supposed to. I have to wonder if the people who spew this same garbage even bothered to read up on it or see what it does or doesn't do or if they are in fact a telemarketer illegally calling trying to keep people from filing complaints. Put the blame where it really lay's though, and that is with the criminals and illegal telemarketers.
Charities, along with some Survey's and Political calls, are exempt from the DNC, however, they can still get into trouble for not placing you on a internal DNC when asked, you can also check your states laws in regards. Some states have different laws in regards to the calls, which can differ from the federal.

Do consider maybe getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $40.00 or less. 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.
Report your callers here if they continue to call and harass:
