What to do with unwanted call?

[13Gigatons]

Some guy keeps calling everyday and filling up the answering machine with giberish, he never leaves a message, all you hear is noise in the background and maybe a tv set.

I've reached my patience with this....

call forward to 911?

*69 and do the same back to him. Other than that call your phone company. They wont tell you who it is but they can call him and report his ass.

Call the police and file a harassment case. Or get a phone system that you can block calls from his number.

they will flag it. i did this one time when my daughter was getting bugged. they had me do *67 after every call i think. it was a private flag for the phone company, so if they were from the same number the 3rd call would get the phone company to notify the police with all the info.

turn off the answering machine
change your telephone number

answer the damn phone and ask him what the fuck he wants?

Maybe it's your future self calling to warning you of great danger?

 

[Jeeebus]

Do this and he will never call again

Tried that route and he won't answer all you hear is a loud tv or other noise.

They want me to buy a bunch of services to track him down...shouldn't they block his number for free?

 

[yankeesfan]

What's the number?

You could try registering with the national do not call list for starters.

Call them concerning harassment from this number and not about blocking it.

I did that a long time ago to stop marketing people calling.

my GF has been getting the same thing.....sounds sorta like a prop engine, a click, and then hangs up. this morning when she woke up, there were 6 new messages, exactly the same just like that. if she picks up the phone "blocked numbeR" there is no reply.

Just called but it went to his voice mail... I'll go say hello if you want.

Edit: # is not published, pay some money to get his name & address.
