Getting harassed! Multiple calls over multiple days. I was polite. Im not interested. They keep calling every 20-30mins then hang up.. Pathetic people with pathetic jobs. Contact your telco and get them to do a MCT.(MALICIOUS CALL TRACE) its the only way to get a cease and desist order sent to them.
