Never a live person, always a message about not wanting telemarketers to call. No messages are ever left, just this recording when you answer, there are a couple different versions. One call, early in the message, said to press 1 if you want to be removed from the list. To my regret I did and and now concerned that I should not have done so, sort of like opening a bogus e-mail. Pressing 1 is probably going to come back to haunt me. http://www.alldb.in/mobile/7602044215-mobile-number-tracking/ I did have my phones registered on the national do not call list from awhile back. Recently my home phone has received a lot of junk calls that hang up when it goes to a message. I never answer my home phone, it's actually unnecessary to even have but is part of a Comcast package. Anyway I just re-registered both phones in case the Do Not Call thing has an expiration date. https://www.donotcall.gov/ I am going to punish my finger for even pressing 1.

A lot of these are Robo calls - numbers generated by a computer - they don't know they're real numbers till you answer or press 1. I'm on the do not call list but it doesn't help. I report every call but they can't do much about it as most come from off-shore. They know who in the US is behind it but they don't have enough evidence to prove it. Maybe me and the 12 gauge need to pay this guy a visit. Great stuff Cavey Awards

Honestly I get more wrong numbers than telemarketers now days. To the point on one I get often enough from the same old woman trying to call her grandaughter. I usually call her back to make sure she's ok, since she called me by mistake and not her grandaughter, she gets a kick out of it, lol.
