And I'll bet her caller ID said "unknown caller"--the Bell outfits play a game of footsie. First they sell you the Caller ID, then they sell the telemarketer the means to override your Caller ID. I get calls at 2:30 and 5:00 AM from a telemarketer's fax line. My Bell company won't tell me who is calling me without my getting a subpoena...

If you get unwanted faxes, THAT you can stop. I had the same problem. But now I don't get any anymore. I collected a whole stack and send them to the FCC. Sending unsolicited faxes is strictly illegal.

I know, isn't that the most dumbest thing you've ever heard!! So when I heard this I filed a police report and when the solicitor who was calling over and over again called again I told them what I did, they never called back. I don't know if I would have gotten a judge to issue the subpoena, I didn't have a chance to find out. If I cant tell who is calling me they don't get through. Beware the person who was calling showed a 1-800 number on my caller ID, however the number was not valid. The nerve!
