Grimm Sun, 14 Feb 2010 00:45:21 +0000 http://www.kluner.net/?p=380#comment-622 For about two weeks in a row, I've been getting calls from an unknown phone number to my cell phone every workday at 6:30 PM and 8:30 PM (almost exactly the same times every day). I'm pretty sure it's an automated call computer just waiting for me to pick up to patch me through to a telemarketing person ('moron' in technical terms). I never pick up, and no voicemail is left, ever ... My phone numbers have been in the Infofilter/NoCall registry for years, so there's likely a rogue trader out there running a campaign. Hope OPTA gets them soon.
