Dontstopbelever2000ismyfavoritesoap

call list one way or another
RyanMcFlyin
Yeah, I’ve been getting a ton lately. I wonder if it’s because of upcoming elections.
CheeseAndMustard
Yup
ataradov
2-3 calls a day. I'm not answering the phone unless it is a known numbers. And who is still stupid enough to fall for the extended warranty?
MellifluousJoker
Yes! Wtf
youputyourrightfootin
We'll you shouldn't have killed the library!
erdettebrukt3000
Just add a wildcard block on those area codes and they will not bother you again... 860*
Croatoan45
I happens to me after i fill our any kind if job application.
ChowYunChubby
I get about 2 a day at the moment
clutchthepearls
Yeah, I don't have friends either.
wfo87Stang
At noon yesterday I got call after call every two minutes!
TheKentuckySlasher
Time to change your #, stop giving your real # to any company that asks for it, I give them my old boss #. He deserves the extra spam calls
Kittynomnoms
Going to be a bit hard to deal with my college if I do that, and I'm 90% sure they're the one selling my number.
zenoshogun
Maybe Mr Likely has something very important to tell you...
Rijtjeshuis
Tax season approaches
Fargus57
I love tax season scam calls. Especially the ones where the police are on the way to arrest me for unspecified tax/IRS crimes.
TheobromineAddict
I thought Congress passed a law against this?
AceBandito
Nah, just shitloads of grouptexts from unblockable hotmail accounts
blwoodcock
Add in a few occasionally call outs for food...
krugle
I can't even remember the last time I had a scam call.
SnapKylePop
What's your secret!?!
StuckInBetweeen
Not having data
diftorhehsmusma
It took me two+ weeks of blocking every single one...eventually, it stopped
TalleyZorah
These are often caused by data leaks. At this point, your best bet is to change your number. I changed mine so the area code is a 1/2
TalleyZorah
different state. That way I know if a number comes in from that state, it's automatically a spam phone call due to how spoofing works.
Kittynomnoms
Data leaks my ass. People are just selling your info. I had 0 spam until I applied to university programs. Now I get multiple per day.
CrazyCatDaddy
He wants you to join the Dungeon & Daddies podcast.
CorneliusCornwall
Is that some sort of bdsm podcast?
CrazyCatDaddy
(Not a BDSM podcast)
CorneliusCornwall
Sometimes a bdsm podcast*

depyoutea
India does not give a fuck about the do not call list
momoee
The problem there is scam callers can requisition the DoNotCall list and violate the terms using spoofed phone numbers. Breaking the law.
Slamtastik
People tried to use this when I was doing door to door sales thinking it works. Lady there is no do not knock list, my boss = a greedy fuck
SnapKylePop
Been registered here since 2004. Hasn't helped one bit.
SeeMyVests
After you’ve been on the list for 31 days you can report these spam calls https://www.donotcall.gov/report.html
SeeMyVests
You can also report spam texts
ButtersTheCat
I don't get why I can auto-block calls from private numbers, but not these. I'm NEVER going to answer them.
KnowGoYesStopWin
You can send unknown numbers straight to voicemail, they rarely leave a message and might think your number is no longer active
FartBoxExtract
Hiya spam blocker. I rarely get spam now.
InfinitusEquitas
Put on do not disturb and only allow contacts to ring your phone. Makes life a lot more pleasant.
FrolickingFrolicking
That is a big help, but the root problem is still rotting. Voicemail box full, endless cancerous deceptions and scams, with no regulations
Slamtastik
Theres regulations, they just skirt them with computer technology
Bmxrider70763
Because we have 85 year old ghouls with no understanding of even yesterday's technology making our laws.
Tokomek
You can block them, you just have to pay to block them.
ButtersTheCat
That's a scam in itself. Guess I'll just keep blocking them one by one.
Krossis
Block a randomly spoofed number? You have 9999999999 numbers to block, not including other number formats
Tokomek
Hiya is paid but can then just block everyone not in your contacts.
dedpaen
That’s because they are a computer program dialing from a “hub”. Remember “extensions”? The base number never shows.
dtallen243
They also spoof other people's numbers. I once got a scam call from my own number
ButtersTheCat
LOL...bet that was freaky.
Hibbtygibitty
Here’s an idea: might not catch many, but when they do: 20 years, no reduction for good behavior, no parole.
wtforero
Had it happen to me at a low point, for a second thought it was a warning from future me
ThisIsSteel
I used to have fun fucking with scam calls, now they just send me scams over text.
howdoyouturnthisonagain
Yea same, "You have a parcel ready for delivery. click this link and enter your bank details to receive it."
FrolickingFrolicking
Sexy woman wishes for sex with yourself, hot singles click here thank you meet me soon hello
MrReaperofDead
It's fucking chaos every day. I've been using the "Do Not Disturb" feature, and literally this spam call issue goes away! :D But sheesh!
GrampaMoses
I was like this and complained to my provider, they told me to download their scam shield app. Now it doesn't ring or give me notifications.
Krossis
I answer unknown callers with "the number you have reached is not in service" and if I get a live one, they stop calling
FrolickingFrolicking
Damn does this work? This will only work if some scammers/groups are paying money for accurate good leads with dead #’s removed
Krossis
Well if it's a live number, yeah, doesnt do anything to the robot callers
ILOVESCRUBS
Start answering them. Its a great stress reliever
crypticorb
Doesn't help if it's always a bot with a very lifelike introduction. No real person to waste time or relieve stress on.
BigFatBobbie
I answer but they stop trying to scam. They just hang up now. How do you get them to go through the schpieel?
Commander5AM
They hang up because they were just calling to see if the number was live, now they know they can sell your number on to more scammers.
Commander5AM
Watched a whole documentary on it not too long ago, about scammer practises and how they avoid the law and such.
FrolickingFrolicking
I see what you mean, but, the volume of calls is so large overall that it doesn’t matter if you pick up or not, you’re getting a million
FrolickingFrolicking
Scam Likely calls either you. Also, I have important information about your car insurance.
billyrayvirus
If you have T-Mobile or Verizon, you can opt in to the service that automatically blocks these calls.
MrReaperofDead
Yes, I have T-mobile already, and I can confirm that that opt, doesn't work. u_u
StuckInBetweeen
You should contact support because it works reaaaally well. Never gotten a scam likely since I joined and same for my family.
billyrayvirus
It's no extra charge.
SenorNalgas
Tell me more, please. How would one go about doing this. Or in Spanish: How would Juan go about doing this?

We’ve been trying to reach you about your car’s extended warranty…
lemonbasil
My phone started receiving 10+ a day just a few days ago. What was the change?
L3NTON
Well there are a few hundred million phone numbers in North America so they finally got to a block of numbers that contains yours.
Dashirl
Mine is just a bunch of missed calls from your mom
MrReaperofDead
I think I know what the cause is. With the jobless situation, people are working from home at companies...That spam call people.
Shpielers
So does mine, but after a whole week not just a single day
asmodeusYrZero
Yup. I had 15 come in within a minute. ?
nugenki
Look, changing everyone in your contact to "Scam Likely" was funny at first, but you need to pick up the phone. Your mother and I are 1/2
Charibdes37
It's all stuff like " We're calling on some crap dept, we want money" Nope!
