Left blank vm.

recieved a call on my office phone at 7 pm yesterday, which is after hours so it went to voicemail. The message was a recording saying if I let them put a small sign in my yard they will install a new security system at no cost to me, to hear more press 1 and to be placed on their do not call list press 9.

Yeah right, sure you will.

Definitly a scam.

I pay for cell service so someone can go and sell my phone number to a third party, its bull. i am beginning to weigh options on technology vs. privacy.

Hope this message is gonna be helpful for someone. It happened to me too, and lots of times, at home phone and mobile phone. No answer, no message. Telemarketer? Prank calls? Whatever it is i got tired and I decided to block it from my house phone simply digiting: * 60 then followed the instructions and digit: # 240-318-1521 # and hang up. That number is blocked. It SHOULD work for the majority of phones.

Also the iPhone can block calls by hitting the i icon to the right of the number in Recents and scrolling down to "Block This Caller"
