Americans obsessed with preventing Cold Callers?
JoeSchmoe007:
Lavarock7: you can use private Domain registration. Available with GoDaddy (my registrar), NameCHeap and other providers.
As far as spammer calls - if you want to do more about it look at what I described above about Anveo (one of my VOIP providers). My situation is nowhere near as bad as far as spam goes, so I don't use all these features but they do work.

12 years? That should be well beyond the statue of limitations.

That just means legally you don't have to pay. It doesn't mean they can't still try to collect.
They can even file suit, and the debtor will be burdens with having to get it thrown out because of the statute.
Lavarock7:
Yes, it is beyond the statue of limitations but these bad debts get resold and these collectors are not the most honest people in the world. They hope that people will just pay if they harass them enough. They may have bought the debt for pennies on the dollar.
In any event, not my debt, not my number anymore and so, not my problem.
I also know about private domain registration, but I have 20 or so domain names and a business reselling domain hosting and e-commerce, etc. I refuse to pay to hide my telephone number. That is why I decided on a GV number that is published and correct and will email me a transcript, should these Bozos (note, Bozo is a registered trademark and yes, Willard Scott payed Bozo in Washing DC, but I digress), these idiots can leave a message if they want, but they probably won't.
You know, now that NerdVittles has a $35 PBX, perhaps I will get one of those and use it to host yet another "telemarketer torture phone queue" which is a dead end that does not have a call taker associated with it :-)

Amazing what one can squeeze into a small package. We've come a long way.
