This call comes every day and has for approximately six months.  It has a recording of the same static, I come to call it the Darth Vador call.

same story.  same time every day, no message ever.

i mean, do i really need to call the FBI about this situation? ive been getting more calls and seeing more forums like this from even my cell phone. what is this about? am i being monitored? my caller ID says its a local call, but the number is not local AT ALL! i dont feel safe anymore, im going to live under a rock...but im sure they would still be able to annoy the KCUF out of me!

Yes, it is spooky.  The guy told me he was calling from Saint Louis, but somehow it was apparently really a local call.  Not sure what the truth is, but I believe he was a telemarketer for a charity.  Maybe he said American Veterans, but I don't clearly recall.

This number is provisioned by Level 3 Communications, and as a VOIP line, the calls can originate from anywhere.  Level 3 is a big operation, and they do have legitimate customers, but they also seem to be very popular with collection agencies and scammers.

I suggest keeping a log of nuisance calls for a period of time (date, time, call contents) and then contacting Level 3's abuse department.  Their web site is, unsurprisingly, <http://www.level3.com/>

Just remember Level 3 IS NOT CALLING YOU, they are just a phone company.  But if you are polite, and can document the problem, they may be helpful to you (or not).
