PEOPLE - It doesn't matter if you are on the Do Not Call list. These are scammers who use computers to robo-dial every possible number they can dial. The number that shows up on your caller ID is not the real number they are calling from. It is "spoofed". You can report it all you want - it is not the number the computer is calling you from. They are not telemarketers. They may pretend to offer you products or services, but these are just attempts to get you to provide personal info, like a credit card number, or your Social Security number, so they can rip you off or steal your identity. Do not answer, do not respond in any way. Do not push a button to "opt out".... it's just a way for them to confirm they are calling a live number.
Complain to your US Senator of Representative. It is hard to believe the phone companies and the FCC can not stop these scammers.
