I won't answer if the Caller ID reads "Unavailable," and I don't recognize the area code. No message left.

These people should be shut down because they use automated machines and do not allow you to tell them to stop. Their mailbox is "full."

When the phone rang, at 7:45 PM EDT today, I got a recorded message telling me about President Obama's mortgage assistance plan, and telling me if I wanted and was eligible for Federal Assistance, press "1"
The woman who answered the phone had a faint Indian (or similar) accent. She immediately started into her copy on "would you like to save money on your mortgage?" When I asked why the US Federal Government would be using a phone number in Ontario CA, she said "I get that a lot. Why do you say that? I am in Sunny Southern California!" I told her that Caller ID had given her away.
I then asked which agency she represented. She said it was "National Mortgage" but was not affiliated with the US Government. I asked "so this is a private firm?" "Yes, sir, it is." I then informed her I am on the National Do Not Call list and did not want to be... well, called again, but at that point, she said "Have a nice day sir" and hung up on me.
They call again, I will try to get an address. Then my lawyer will be talking to them. He's good. And a violation of the DNC is a fine of up to $1000 per call, I do believe...

I am also on the DNC list, but every time I try to get some info to get them stopped, they hang up.
This time, I played along. The automated message said they were from "Credit Card Services". When I spoke to a representative, he asked if I wanted to lower my credit card rate. I told him I did. He asked if I had over $4000 in credit card debt, I told him I did. (even though I have no credit card debt.) I was trying to get to the point where he would ask me personal information so I could question him back.
But then the curious question happened: "Are you over 70 years old?" I replied no, thinking a credit card company would be interested in younger people. With that, he hung up.
It concerns me that they are targeting older people exclusively. My grandparents would probably fall for this-
