It’s getting outright ridiculous to the point where I might have to change my number and I’ve had the same number for over 15 years.

I literally get over 30 unwanted calls a day.
That is not an exaggeration .

Its unbearable .

US Online Pharmacy . Whoever the fuck that is calls 15 times a day .

The list goes on and on.

They are even making some of the calls look local wirh my area code only to answer the phone and someone from India trying
yo sell me something .

its out of hand and makes my phone almost useless with my phone number .

Is there some kind of legal action I can take ?

What happened to the national do not call list ?

A presidential candidate ought to make this his #1 campaign promise .

i would vote for he or she or it no matter what they believe on other issues .


Oh daym there goes my phone.

I get calls from New York trying to sell me pharmaceutical drugs all the time.

Then I also get calls from others disguising their numbers as local to get ppl to answer...

I am getting calls from "the warranty department" someone at "credit card services" and calls from Florida and Washington state that keep hanging up.
I block as many of the numbers as I can but it seems futile.
Honestly, I wish I had never put my mobile # on anything. I now put one of my office phone #'s on everything that asks for a phone number, but it seems too little too late.

I don't think there is a legal remedy.

Problem is now doesn't even matter if your on a do not call list or have a blocked no

These calls are autobot/random cold calls and once they get thru your "onThe list"
best thing to do ignore .....
Very very frustrating

Just lost it on a bitch yesterday...Called her a fucking **** and she called me back 3 more times and I called her that 3 more times and she said she has access to my number and would put it on hundreds of these scammers list...Then told me her number was fake and there was nothing I could do about it...I did report to FCC online....But of course there is nothing they can/will do...We trust government to keep us safe from nuclear weapons and such,but they can't even protect us from these lowlifes with fake phone numbers....Sickening...She was an Obamacare stooge...They get 10.00 per month from government for every person they sign up,so I guess the allure of signing up a couple hundred people gets them a couple grand a month of free money for a year....

I was getting 30+ calls a day from these health care fucks. Absolutely helpless, nothing you can do. Finally changed my number, haven't had a call in 3 months.

purchase a digitone call blocker and your life will be so much quieter. i block all area codes and then i invite numbers or area codes that i want to receive. for local calls invite all of the 702 area codes. you will have to block repeat annoying local or 800 numbers but the telemarketers will call but not annoy you nearly as much as those that are calling now. nothing is 100% fool proof but this a winner.

I only get like one or two a day. I never answer a call from anyone I don't know, and just hit the ignore as soon as they call. I think if you answer, and talk to them, it only gets you on more lists.

Problem with ignoring numbers is I get important calls from different kinds of area codes.
This would put me at risk of missing important calls.

This does not even account for all the fake calls from my own area code that looks local only to answer and it’s someone from India
