tele-spammers

Ok, this is ridiculous.

I got something like 16 calls in a 48 hour period. They were rather obvious too.

My number is (AAA)BBB-xyzt

The spam calls were all supposedly from numbers of the form (AAA)BBB-xxxx where the xxxx was different every call.

I'm told this is common pattern for these sorts of calls. The dumbest part is that since these were made with a predictive dialer (dials several numbers at once and hangs up the others when one answers) they were often hung up before I could have gotten to the phone anyway.
