Called and left no answer on the machine.  Another one to block.

Let it ring - turned off the answering machine.

Since this was a local number, I picked up.  This was a recorded message; they called to let me know that I had won a free cruise, due to a contest that I had entered.  Of course, I had entered no such contest so I quickly hung up.  Now that number is blocked on my phone.

Recording said I won a free cruise, so I stayed on the line. Spoke with "Paul Burns" who told me I won a complimentary cruise from Getaway Travel. All I had to do was pay $98 per person tax. I asked what contest I had entered, he told me it wasn't a contest, but since I had been on a cruise before, the cruise line company had given them my information so they could use a third party company to book all their empty rooms. Said I wasn't interested, and hung up.

WE NEVER ANSWER THE PHONE IF WE DON'T RECOGNIZE THE CALLER.  WE FIGURE IF IT'S A LEGITIMATE CALL, THEY'LL LEAVE A MESSAGE.

MULTIPLE CALLS!
