I just spoke with the Verizon operator and she advised me this is the new way telemarketers are getting around the "Do Not Call" list. As long as their number is displayed on the caller ID, they are not subject to the "Do Not Call" regulations so they just use a number that is not a valid number when you call back so you can't get through to them. Should have known they'd figure out a way to go around the do not call regulations.
