I answered. They did not hang up but did not say anything. I hung up.

Telemarketer selling home security equipment.  I would bet that they are phishing for credit card numbers and other identity items such as home address, etc.

They call everyday, the "do not call list" does no good.

We need more people to do what I do.  I play along with the caller and get transferred to the next person up the line.  I politely talk to them and ask questions.  And answer their's.  Anything to take their time.  Eventually they tell me how much the monthly fee is. Of course, I'm interested. They ask me for my name which I make up.  The last one wanted my address which I gave as being in California. He questioned how my area code could be in California when it is an Ohio area code.  My explanation is that my phone is a cell phone and that I have recently moved.  I probably had10 minutes of fun and wasted a lot of his time.  My feeling is that if a lot of people did this sort of thing,  It might impact their time.  Try it----it's fun.

That's exactly what I have been doing. It is fun and I it gets rid of that angry feeling!
