Jan.4 2014got a call went to voice mail call is from Montreal Canada. I AM on the do not call list

Called  9/7/2014 at 11:36 AM, I answered and female said something in French then hung up . Who knows ??

I just got this one. Yes, they call to see when you are home.  They are paid to do this by legitimate companies, so don't be so quick to let them off the hook just yet.  The way it works is they hire people, often out of the country so they are not violating American Do Not Call list.  They are checking when you are home then they hand that info off to American telemarketers who are polite about asking if you want to be taken off the list.  It's a back door way to research the best time you will answer your phone.

Kept getting calls from this number

If you are on the Do Not Call List and you are receiving calls from telemarketers and unknown charities, 99% of the time it is a scam.  If they are legitimate companies, they will know that you are on the list and will not call you.
