Does anyone remember where you can down load the sound, "that a phone is no longer in service"? This automatically disconnects a computer generated call, and they would not call back unless they loaded your phone number back into their computer. I down loaded this sound about 3 maybe 4 years ago, and no longer have it due to a computer crash. I lost part of my hard drive and my bookmarks. I think I got this off Smart Computing forum but maybe someone at After Dawn has a link or remembers this topic. Does anyone have a link? Sure would appreate it. Later George
i don't remember that, but i do know there's a Do Not Call list you can put your numbers on; if you get called, you have legal backing to sue.
Thanks ddp and Auslander, I am on the Do Not Call list. The call I'm trying to get rid of is a computered generated call and it wants me to start punching in numbers, which I don't do and I just hang up. It calls once a day and the caller doesn't identify itself (hidden number). I don't know how to turn them in, if I can't ID them. But thanks, again.
I have a TeleZapper which works great, it came with a VTech cordless phone. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telezapper I think these are the sounds (Sit tones) you want, it's what the TeleZapper uses: http://home.flash.net/~carlton2/telemark.htm Google "sit tones", should find what you are looking for.
In most places hit *57, call trace. Usually you need three traces, then you contact law enforcement. They will subpoena the phone company on your behalf. I don't know if three as a minimum is hard-and-fast, but that usually works best in court.
