CRIMINALS. Yes, the same criminal gang. Just a new phone number. This criminal organization is fully supported by our greedy politicians, who share in the profits of crime. Nothing will ever be done in California to stop these criminal gangs from calling us. These criminals exist due to the support of our corrupt politicians and money hungry phone companies, both of which receive significant profits from the abuse by these criminal enterprises. It would be ever so simple for the phone company to identify all unused phone numbers by marking them as "invalid number" as part of the "caller i.d." program and/or the phone companies setting up their own reporting email systems (just like this one). But, the phone companies elect not to identify invalid numbers since they earn substantial income from these criminals calling us every day. We get to pay for these callers too, as we are usually billed for calls from these unwanted spam callers Such is our life in California. Criminals, politicians and the phone companies all share in the common interest of easy money.

I answered, nobody replied

2 calls from this number, ya, I answered this time, no one there. blocked.

Same experience as the rest.

What happens is, some of us are on "no call" lists.

So they call, hang up. You call back, now you have engaged them.

You no longer have"no call" protection from that "company" or it's affiliated.
Simply because you call them back, they can call you continuously.

After all, you called them. That "company" can claim you wished to do business.

Which means they can now contact you for whatever reason.

Stay out of the trap. Good LUCK to you all.

D.

Why would you call back a number that you didn't recognize in the first place?
