The telemarketers aren't calling, it's the scammers.

Please, please stop calling my # (901) 496-8925

Thank you

Doing about an hour of phone work, I found out this number (802) 488-3064 is provided thru CTC Communications Corporation, VT (NOT the CTC Communications corp in Canada).

Problem is the only local number [802-658-8864 in Williston Vermont] for Ctc communications corporation, VT is disconnected. I got an (800) number thru Centurylink [using 802-555-1212]. Thru many many loops, hurdles, and wrong numbers, I found out the telephone provider for this 'security company' [Ctc Communications] was bought out by Earthlink.

I confirmed this with Earthlink business at (800) 962-2488.

Next, I was tried to squeeze out the contact info for this "security" company twice, but Earthlink was tight lipped and required a subpoena. Earthlink charges $75 per hour for them to research, along with whatever your court costs would be [http://www.earthlink.net/about/policies/civil.faces].

So I kind of hit a dead end and im just blocking the whole area code to prevent further calls. Good luck whoever wants to pursue this further. I just doubt the $1,000-per-FTC-telemarketer-who-calls-after told-to-stop-and-after-you-are-on-the-national-do-not-call-list-cival-penalty 'thing' will be enough to pay all your legal, travel, and research fees.

I was kind of thinking of when they call having them come out and waste their time also getting the contact information for the 'company' but, as this is clearly a scam, its not very safe giving out your physical address to thieves.

Good luck people.

P.S. I am leaving this same message for the numbers below. If you dial any of these numbers, oddly the same 'man' answers saying to press 1 to be placed on the do not call list. SAME EXACT MESSAGE VERBATIM for each of these numbers.

(802) 488-3064, (802) 488-3063, (802) 488-3062, (802) 488-3061, (802) 488-3060,  (802) 488-3052, (802) 488-3051, (802) 488-3050, (802) 488-3045, (802) 488-3044, (802) 488-3030, (802) 488-3023, (802) 488-3022, (802) 488-3021

I stopped dialing at (802) 488-3020. I believe this 'security company' has the whole (802) 488-30xx block (99  numbers).

(802) 488-3065 - 69 are all busy/not-in-service, as are 53 - 59, 43- 40, 39-31, 29- 24 and 20

I tried (802) 488-2060 just to see about the next block of number but it was for a completely different company and did not have a clue about any home security products.

Also, (802) 488-4060/62 were not in service (with a message saying so).

you can add area code 202 to all those numbers now too there leaving messages about a criminal case my home just burned down and im pregnant with 3 kids im ready to go crazy

Heidi, there is *no* criminal case - it's just a bunch of scammers trying to scare people into paying a bogus debt, a debt that's already been paid, or even a debt that is owed - but not to the caller.  BTW, debt is civil, not criminal, so that should tell you right there that the callers are just a bunch of thieving losers.  If they are calling your cell phone, you may be able to add the number to a reject call list.  If not, there are free call blocking apps.  Sorry that you are going through this harassment after losing your home - I hope things turn out better for you soon!
