kikikikopa,
In this post you mention that you are fowarding your number.
http://www.obitalk.com/forum/index.php?topic=7977.msg52003#msg52003This is very important to know, which is why Taoman asked again. If you are forwarding your number, you are not just using
just the
same number, you are now using
two numbers, the same at GV, and the new one at PP.
So, there could be two reasons why you are getting more telemarketing calls.
1) More calls to GV number all of a suddenly (thus the fishy comment I suspect)
2) Calls to your new PP number (no telling where that number's been in the past, like those bills in your wallet) (thus not fishy at all).
To troubleshoot, you need to compare your PP and GV incoming call logs. Are the new calls coming only to PP? If so, you'll need to stop them there if PP has any kind of blocking. If they are in the GV log, then you can stop them in either location.
You can always add your new PP number to the national Do Not Call register, but dishonest callers will never honor that of course.
