Got  a call and no message

Kevin,As much as I'd like to see these companies go down and get charged by the police, I think it's unfair to blame the cops on this one.  These scammers register these phone numbers under false names and addresses so tracking them down would be next to impossible.I suppose the only other thing one might do is what someone already suggested (and I don't remember exactly who right now) and contact the provider of the telephone number (which can be found on many reverse-lookup sites, even if there is no owner information) and say that you're getting harassing/scam calls from this number.  Might not hurt to file a police report before you do this so you can give the telephone company the report number for their file.  If they get enough complaints about any given number, they can cancel it.Although, I'm sure that these scammers have a dozen numbers set up, so losing one won't be a big deal.  The problem is just SO big, where does one start?

When I pressed the number to speak to a rep I got on with a male, told him I was tired of their calling.  His response was "So What"  When I pursued he told me again, "So What"  Tried calling back but it was blocked as expected.  Reported it to our local phone company, they gave me the number for ghost busters, 1-+1 888-495-8801.  That is my next move.

why can't these calls stop

I have told them off they said they wanted my name and where I live they don't know where I live and they cant't do anything about it if you tell them off or tell them to go f*** right off they don't have the authority to call the police if they call you and you swear at them

Yes, these calls come on cell phones too.
