I don't even get that, mine are all routed through various random numbers in my area code in the hopes I'll answer, and then they hang up just to get info on if/when I'll answer a call.
Does anyone really get calls from actual telemarketers anymore? I only get scam calls about border services seizing illegal packages in my name at customs. >

I get prospected by people doing cold calls, trying to sell me their software or trying to get me to hire their agency all the time.
Phone calls should be part of any sales operation but the repeated cold calling needs to stop.
