Blocking 425-336-8351 Robot Caller Parasite

Hi,

Blocking 425-336-8351 Robot Caller Parasite:

Verizon told me they can't block calls that are not local. I have filed
a complaint with my state attorney, and will with the U.S. attorney.

This "parasite" is a "robot" telemarket (Visa & Mastercard) caller, calls
four or more times a day, every day except weekends. It started June 6.
I tried everything to get the "parasite" to stop calling.

A Google search, "425-336-8351" produced well over 500 hits. All the
"hits" I viewed has the exact same PROBLEM as I have. I read one
article where someone is offering a reward for the location of the person
or organization so he can "beat the sh.. out of this person".

Does anyone know of a Caller ID device with a special feature to "block",
disconnect, or automatically hang-up on a specified telephone number?

Thanks in advance, John

Yes there are such devices. I've seen them in the past, basically
require the caller to press a number to get past the magic box. Since
automated call machines can't press the number, they don't get connected!

"Please press 5 to complete this call..."

Caller presses 5. And your phone rings.

Hi Peter,

Thank you for your response.

On Friday, I received only one call from the "parasite". I'll wait and
see what happens first. Maybe it will stop?
