Folks, sanity at last!
There is a Panasonic Digital Phone that allows you to use your CallerID along with very simple programing BY THE PHYSICAL PHONE for # 30 numbers block. Once you Block unwanted callers, it will ring once, then disconect on the scoundrels! It takes a push of three buttons once you identify them to block.
I may be "twisted"but I get a chuckle each time I get a call from the blocked # because it is final once programed. If each of the bums wants to purchase another 30 numbers and start again so will I.
The phone system located... @ http://www.amazon.com/Panasonic-Expandable-Digital-Cordless-Answering/dp/B00138FMQK...... WELL WORTH the investment of around $80.00 for 4 wireless phones and answering machine!! This is not an add for Amazon, they happen to have the best price.
Good luck.

RECEIVED A CALL 5/27 @ 4:56pm ON MY BUSINESS LINE.  I KNEW IT WAS A SCAM SO I SIMPLY PRESSED THE "BLOCK" BUTTON OM MY UNIDEN PHONE.  NO MORE CALLS FROM THESE A-HOLES.

PLEASE READ AND HEED MY NOTES BELOW

TO EVERYONE:
------------+++++++BEING ANGRY OR UPSET WILL NOT HELP YOU!!!!  YOU MUST BE PRO-ACTIVE!!!++++++-------
PLEASE READ BELOW!
FACT 1 - the DNC list CLEARLY does not work!  Everyone knows this...or should know this!
FACT 2 - filing a complaint with the FCC does not work!  A total waste of time.  Done that.
FACT 3 - having an unlisted phone will not help you.
FACT 4 - asking/begging telemarketers to take you off their call list – you’ll get laughed at!
FACT 5 - no "class action" law suits are being filed and certainly, none are being LITIGATED.  
FACT 6 – contacting the BBB – LAUGHABLE!!!  The BBB SELLS their ratings to the highest bidder, so your complaint will go unnoticed.
********* QUIT BEING FRUSTRATED OVER TELEMARKETER CALLS! ********
********************* QUIT BEING A VICTIM!!! *****************
****** PLEASE DO THIS!     PURCHASE A CALL BLOCKING TELEPHONE!!! ******
Call blocking phones are very inexpensive $40-$60 and they come with, at least, one wireless handset.  Very, very convenient.
************* DON'T GET MAD – HIT BACK! ************
STOP BEING ANNOYED - STOP BEING A VICTIM - STOP COMPLAINING -
BUY A CALL BLOCKING PHONE!
Uniden and Panasonic make CALL BLOCKING telephones.  They’re cheap - $40-$60 and they usually come with a 2nd  wireless handset.  COSTCO & AMAZON SELL THEM.  
They work beautifully!  These phones also block “PRIVATE”, “OUT OF AREA” and "UNKNOWN" calls!!!
I have had the same home number and the same business phone number for over 15 years and my home and my business lines (both published) seem to be on every call list imaginable.  I bought a Panasonic call blocking phone for my home and I bought a Uniden call blocking telephone for my business.
NO MORE PROBLEMS WITH TELEMARKETERS.  THEY CAN’T GET THROUGH!
We can stop these telemarketers IF we all buy a call blocking phone.
***********NOTHING ELSE WILL STOP THESE TELEMARKETERS! **********

An automated call from "David", trying to sound all authoritative and business-like. Beckoning me, tempting me with immediate assistance and help from taxreliefnews.com .  He (it) told me they would be able to help no matter what my tax issues were.  "liens", "penalties" even "JAIL TIME" was no problem for them to handle.  

Maundered on for maybe 20 seconds before I was offered the big decision! Press 2 to speak immediately with an operator or press 9 to opt out and lose their valuable expertise FOREVER!

This message would be my ONLY and FINAL opportunity.  Alas, just when it seemed this golden beacon of good fortune was about to slip through my fingers, another voice (older, less sophisticated) jumped in and told me to call 888-990-9121.  Was told this was not the IRS (as if I couldn't guess) and my new, older friend reiterated much of what David was so anxiously trying to tell me in the first place.

David came back!  Told me I MUST leave my cell number, (not my office line, home line or anything else) just my cell number.  He then assured me, that by pressing 2, I would get the quickest and most comprehensive assistance possible.  I of course pressed 2 but my hopes were dashed when it only resulted in an answering machine, alerting me that all sales representatives were busy but that by leaving my CELL PHONE, someone would absolutely, most definitely call me back as soon as possible.

We shall see!

It is very important to file an FCC complaint anytime you receive calls like this.  If enough complaints are registered, eventually these calls may stop.

i got two or three calls from this A** monkey loveing moron... they or him, it are now on my reject list and BTW i know who you are and when see you, YOUR SO F***ING DEAD!

Jeff,

Sounds like you got the whole dog and pony show.  Me, all I got was a "missed call," no caller ID (just the phone number) and no message.  I feel ignored.

I have to agree with those who see the DNC as a black hole.  If you want to know what happened to this idealistic concept, just follow the money.  These telemarketers must make BIG political contributions to keep the FCC off their backs.
