February 22, 20223 yr What is their deal? How do I get them to stop calling? Im on the “Do not call” list, cell and home phone, and I get several calls each week asking if I want to sell my house. I tell them I’m on the “do not call” list, and that ends it, but dammit! They keep calling. I‘ve asked the last several who they work for, and they say “Homebuyers Inc”. I’ve turned them into the FTC for encroaching the DNC list, but they keep at it (even though they say they’ll take me off when I bitch). Are they lying about their employer? Is there some other scam going on?
February 22, 20223 yr Do not hang up! This is an important call. Your business information is outdated.
February 25, 20223 yr I get at least 5 text messages a week from someone wanting to buy homes/property/etc. No idea how I got on these peoples radar but it's annoying.
February 26, 20223 yr My standard text response is, "Go fuck your mother." The ones that actually reply back are pretty funny.
February 26, 20223 yr Tell them that you have someone knocking on your front door and you’ll be back in a second. Put the phone down and go back to doing whatever you were doing. Waste a minute of their time before they hang up.
February 26, 20223 yr Do Not Call registry is bogus. Turn your phone to do not disturb mode and only accept incoming calls/texts from folks in your contacts list.
February 27, 20223 yr I get unsolicited calls for my properties plus the additional brain damage that somebody named John owns a house in Manor and apparently his number got mis-entered as mine so I get calls on that one as well. I've offered to sell the house in Manor multiple times..
August 23, 20223 yr Author Ok, my phone is blowing up with spam calls, many of them fraud attempts. What’s the best app for blocking them?

August 23, 20223 yr Author Thanks, but I’m in a job search. I don’t want to block all new callers, just the spammers.
