So I'm receiving A LOT of calls from toll free numbers and I'm interested in knowing a little more about "harassment" in the courts.
A little log of toll free calls: 8:21am 10/29 8:52am 10/29 12:45pm 10/29 5:00pm 10/29 5:10pm 10/29 Help?

Why would you want to take them to court?
It's more fun ****ing with their heads. |

If it's the same dude that's pretty weird.
Best thing to do is to tell them to take them off their "list", that way they can't call you again. |

To elaborate on what DoctorSerpentine said, request that your number be put on the National No-Call List, and telemarketers will leave you alone from then on.
P.S That's nothing - my family used to get over 20 solicitation calls a day until we had our number placed on the list - 5 isn't so bad. ![]() ~Bynary Fission |

20 is pretty extreme. Most I've had in a day was like...13.

Yup. I'm not sure what caused it, but my mom runs a pottery business, so as you can imagine, she was constantly calling people and getting supplies from tons of places...I have little doubt that telemarketers could easily get a hold of her number, especially since it's posted on her website.

Yeah, do what Bynary said and have your name put on that list. We used to get them a lot and it would really piss my mom off. Naturally I found ways to have fun with it.. like tell them to 'hold on a sec' and then just leave the phone in a closet.

My brother was a telemarketer. The job sucks, but the pay was good.

Telemarketers can be annoying, but on the other hand, now that we're on the no call list, I kind of miss screwing around with them.
If a telemarketer calls you, just say "Oh, I'm sorry, I can't talk. We don't have a phone." And that seems to hold them for a couple of minutes. |

on my old land line, i had caller ID... and got a call from the Police Chiefs Association... they usually wanted me to donate my old car for some reason... but it was always fun answering the phone as a police department. They would always get confused and hang up.
dicking with telemarketers is so much fun... pity i rarely get any calls from them on my cell.

Telemarketers are trying to get a paycheck.
They put up with a lot of crap from the people they call. With that said, I've always wanted to mess around with one.
