“Meanwhile I can’t do anything about unsolicited sales calls to my cell phone, which is on the Do Not Call List, because the AG in my state determined that the calls were coming from Bulgaria!”
Yes, and you can thank AT&T for all of this, for giving these off-short “businesses” the phone lines to carry out their attacks on us. I filed two or three formal complaints to the FCC with all the requisite info. After a year, they wrote to me that they couldn’t do anything about the callers. The DNCL is a fraud perpetrated on the public. You just have to use Caller ID and not answer the phone for anyone you don’t know.
That's been my policy since caller id. came on the scene. Last night I got a call from "restricted", it went unanswered too.
