How do you stop them?
Now these bastards are using other peoples phone #s so it looks like youre getting a local call. I call the number back and ask "did you just call me?" "No, I never called you"
I have T mobile. I wonder if T mobile can do anything to stop this. Ive already gotten 2 calls in 30 minutes today. One was Marriot hotels and the other was Mastercard. Its getting annoying.
I THINK THE CLONE NUMBERS TOO! I GET LOCAL NUMBER THAT LOOK LIKE MY CELL NUMBER AND IT WILL BE A ROBO CALL!
MAN IT PISSES ME OFF! I GET TONS A DAY!
if i dont know who it is calling me, then i dont answer. idc if it's a local number or not. remember dont ever say yes or affirm anything if you do answer. they record your ass and will scam the fuck out of you
No doubt! Thats probably why Im getting flooded by scam calls now since I answered the phone a couple times thinking it was someone I knew. They should outlaw the use of other peoples phone #s for scam calls.Quote:

man those things piss me off. one of the reason why i dont answer the house phone. now they are calling my cell and using local looking numbers...
I called one number back and an old granny answered the phone. I say "Did you just call me?" Granny: "No, I never called you".
Something about this sure seems illegal. Oh well
arent there apps out there that will stop that?
Its fraud. I get them all day.

Unfortunately most are automated.....
LMAOBT !!! I used to do that too but I used to get all these return calls.Quote:

i cant believe that both the scammer is a moron and anyone that thinks social security or any gov agency is going to call you. fools, hell call one of the agencies and see how long it takes to get through. that and they are pretty much still the only people on the planet that only do business through the mail. bout as bad as people thinking that if they have a warrant for your arrest they will call you demanding you pay it by pre paid card or money gram lmao. yep the law calls you up for a warrant.Quote:

Ok guys I'm gonna drop a bomb shell revelation on ya,a LARGE majority of how these solicitors get your number is by the xxx sites you visit, Sad but true! Stop accessing xxx sites on your phone and u will see a significant drop in the number of solicitation calls you get. You can test this by not accessing them and seeing the number drop, then access your favorite site again and you will get a call within 2 to 3 days just about every time.
i get blown up day in and day out and i have never, not one time visited any site whatsoever on my cell phone. i dont use my phone on the net period. it's your freaking phone company that does it. that's the only thing i can figure outQuote:

Unfortunately, these calls are becoming increasingly sophisticated, and it's harder to stop them. I've heard of some companies selling databases with phone numbers and then using them for targeted advertising and sales calls. It's not fair or legal, but it's hard to stop it from happening.
You can use a free number for verification. This method gives you a temporary number that you can use for online verification and sign-ups. You can keep your personal number private and still receive important calls.
Also, you can contact your phone provider and ask them if they can do anything to block these calls for you.
i actually get a laugh out of trolling the assclowns who call. We've been getting a bunch on our office phone lately where i work for a municipality, i answer the robocall and reply to all the robo voice prompt questions til the automated voice says they're transferring me to a service person and then when Apu comes on sounding like he's about to ask me if i would like a grape squishee i say you do realize you're robocalling the sheriff's dept right? They usually say what? i say you are illegally robocalling the sheriff's dept and i either get an oh, sorry or simply .....click lmfao
In this case, you're having some privacy issues caused by using your phone number for registering on various websites and, that way, giving a chance to the companies to use your number for inappropriate calls. Therefore, you should start using a temporary phone number for verification purposes to avoid such calls and stay safe online.
Hi there! Seems like you have some privacy issues regarding your phone number, which I used to have as well, but found a free solution to stay anonymous. It's a simple way, just start using a virtual phone number
Ironic that a forum topic about unwelcome scam/spam call is resurrected by some other spammer dropping contextual backlinks to a website they’re promoting.
Fucking shit bag 3rd world SEO’s that don’t realize forum links from a different industry carry virtually no impact on seo and website authority/rankings. Google squashed that like 15 years ago.
Now it's scam only calls

Hi! Dude things like these have happened to be before. That is why I just don't use just one phone number, I use many, and they are all virtual numbers, this is the only way I do not get spam calls. Give it a try.Quote:
