Athens, Augusta, Dahlonega?!!  Atlanta news frequently reports scammers that have been busted in that area.  They found a HUGE ring a couple of yrs. ago.  It seems it's about time they were released.  Dittos to "S" but Mom was on the other line and pressed 1; I was on an extension.  The message said just what "S" said it said.  I got her to hang up but she wanted to waste their time.  I think we have better to do than to waste their time because to waste their time is to also waste ours.  Just a note, however:  On other calls I've registered here (and yes, we've received them, groan) I've heard a number of clever ideas.  One involved a blast from an air horn, while another put on an "old" act just to aggravate them, and still another gave the phone to her 3 yr. old.  Given lots of free time I might do some of that.  Anyway I got a GOOD laugh reading those posts!  As for do-not-call lists, they're either from outside the country (and maybe usurping someone's number) so they couldn't care less or they've found a way around it via a random computer program.  Sometimes I think putting your number on those lists makes them even more determined to call you.  I believe they just might have hacked one of those lists, to tell you the truth.  I wouldn't put anything past them.

No one would talk to me just wish they would quit calling

Have gotten these calls before. If I don't know the number, I don't answer. They never leave a message, but I looked the number up here on Google, and it gave me this site.  Glad I did.  I have added them to my contact list as "Do Not Answer"...Makes it much easier.

Another number used for the "online business listing" scam.
If a legitimate company were making robo calls, wouldn't they at least provide the name of their company and a telephone number to call?

They called.  I didn't answer.  They didn't leave a message.
