Found the number on my caller id.

These people are calling my phone number every half hour. I don't know who they are or what they want but it is upsetting my whole house. How can I make them stop?

This number is also calling me every 13 minutes or so now.  At this point it should be dealt with by someone.  They are filling up my answering machine and just ringing and ringing my phone.  I hate my phone.....You shouldn't feel like a victim in your own house.

This number has called me 14 times in the last 4 days. 6 of them today and its only noon.

Get a call blocker.  They're about $50-60 at Walmart.  I'd just program the whole 202 area code into it, as that's what a lot of these scam numbers are coming up as.  Also, get one that you can program to block private and unidentified numbers.
