    *60 from the phone company is call blocking but if you
    try it, and enter the number with a fake area code like,
    123 and a phone number 456 - 6789
    they say it's an invalid number and can't block it.

    I did manage to track one number down and called the phone company in Florida.

    The lady said that it was someone's home number for like 20+ years and the telemarketers
    got a hold of it and started using it.

    There is nothing they can do.

    I've been telling them I've been getting death threats and they are now on the list of
    suspects.

    Nothing works.
    Do not call list...

    I did have a panasonic cordless that would block numbers but....

    the caller id thing comes thru between the 1st and second ring so it would ring once and
    stop which is almost as annoying.

    Neighbor says he has some sort of caller id block box and it doesn't matter
    what the name or number says, it will block whatever it says.

    Gonna look into that and will report back.

I post a lot of stuff on there and forgot to put "o"s in my phone number rather than "0"s. I think the next time i get a call i'm gonna ask what they're wearing, breath heavily and make lots of background noise. Or maybe just go with the whistle
