So I have been in the internet marketing industry for over 19 months now. Just in the last few months, I am getting hammered with people's Biz Opp phone burners!! Some of the same ones call me 3 times/day!! Some allow you to be removed, some don't. Getting sick and tired of it! Anybody got advice?

Do you have your phone number publicly on any websites?

Spam Tools like LeadNetPro will scrape for information like that.

The only place I can think of is some Press release sites. I probably should change it to a fake number.

Greg. Dont' have to fake any phone number. Go to K7.net. Sign up for a number, it's free and then publish that number. K7 sends your messages to your email account and you can delete spammers and answer legitimate calls.

Usually when I talk to people I may ask for phone number so I can keep in contact with them if they wish to have any further questions.
One lady ask that I do not call her at all.
I respected her requests and do not call her at all.
She still has my number and will call when she is ready or have more questions to ask.

Thanks Joyce, Don and Mario! Great advice.

Ok, Greg, I did a little more research.
I was told that you can sign up on the 'Do Not Call List'. Advise the caller not to call again. Send a letter to their main office.
ONe person sued that company because they continued to call him after he did document the calls after the letter. He won a lot of money.
I have screened my calls. If anyone calls and can't leave a message, I can ignore that call.
