Ditto all the below. Caller ID says "Global Trading." I tried one of the ruses prescribed in the Jan 14 LA Times David Lazarus article "How to Torment Telemarketers." I said, "Oh, I'm sorry, I have to look for my wallet. Can you hold on a minute?" The guy said, "Ma'am, you don't need your wallet, I'm just here to tell you about--" but I put the phone down, set my timer for 30 minutes, went about my business. When I came back, he was gone. BUT an important call went to voice mail and I missed it AND they called again this morning. Time to buy an air-horn canister, as suggested by an ex-cop in the article.
