Getting SO SICK of this, my new tactic is to pick up at the second or third ring of these 'new' numbers - if I can get to it on time to beat the ans. machine - and just sit and listen, not say a word. As is usually the case, it was just 'dead air' and it sat there for about 20 seconds before it disconnected. No one came on the line. Hopefully this will 'confuse' the robodialer since it doesn not get either an answering machine outgoing message nor a person saying 'Hello?' Can only hope, since even BLOCKING these calls does not seem to work; got my TENTH (10!) call from 508-227-4856 this morning; yet another "SOLAR PANELS" SCAM call. Suspect that is what THIS one is, too. We are fast approaching 450 of these - JUST the SOLAR/Swtich Electric Scams - since February 2015. (NOT counting all the OTHER scams that are out there, and all the calls we've gotten from those.)
