Non-Technical Threads Chatting over the Back Fence

I get these calls a couple of times a week. I’ve tried to block them
but can’t. :frowning:

Today I dug a little deeper into where these things originate and found
a website with a fascinating story about how Pacific Telecom
Communications Group is making money from these calls, not from the
products that the telemarketer is promoting, but by charging your Telco
a fee each time it displays the caller’s callerid - all in apparent
violation of 16 C.F.R. §310.3(b) of the Federal Telemarketing Sales
Rule.

If you’re curious about how they are getting away with it you can read
about it here:

Since I got rid of my landline and went strictly cell phone, I haven’t
received any spam calls. Only a couple of wrong numbers. :slight_smile:
