Phone companies have to be making money off that stuff or they would shut it down.
Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

I wish President Trump would have drones take out all the call centers in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and every foreign country, that prey on Americans, even though I know it's not feasible to do so.
Keith I'm all for it. Have seal team 6 live broadcast taking down a call center and the calls would stop.

I used to block every number that was a spam call. One day I called a number back and it was a personal residents number. Have had people call me and get nothing but voice mail. Found out the scammers used their number, and I blocked it. I get 10-20 a day sometimes, mostly Medicare scams, as they're not allowed to call you, unless you contact them first.
Hope someday they find a way to track them, there has to be a way to track them down.

I never answer a call that's not in my "book", that and the spam filter keeps most calls away...the no call list is a joke. I used to block unwanted calls, but I ended up with hundreds on the phone, and it only helped till they used a new number.
If someone needs to reach you that's not in your book, they can leave a message....I never have a spam call leave a message... Then you don't get enough Spam calls! LOL I was getting the same Spam call with voicemail from multiple states, multiple voices (male and female), multiple numbers but the EXACT same wording on the pre-recorded message they left.

The do not call list must have some impact after a while I can’t remember the last spam call I’ve had. But donate to a political campaign and they haunt you everyday in every way trying to guilt you into giving them more money. If you send STOP a different number just sends you the next guilt trip.
Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

If I get one a week it's a lot. Im on no call list. I don't answer a number I don't know. Once a number doesn't leave a message I block it. Answering and hanging up, keeps you on their call list.

Same here. I don't do FB and hardly ever get any spam calls. My wife lives on FB and is always complaining about all the spam she gets on her cell phone.
