Most of the calls appear to originate from outside the US. Although these calls are illegal, I doubt the US authorities will extradite anyone from a foreign country over phone calls.

Neighbor who was an exectutive that worked for the telephone company stated that these calls could easily be stopped.
BUT
The lobbyists in Washington - work on BOTH sides of the spectrum.
The phone companies make money the more calls that are made.
My phone machine states the incoming callers telephone number. And some are 603.
These numbers are purchased then sold to the Asian/Pacific telemarketers.
The lobbyists know this but lobby US Congress to leave all alone.
All could be stopped. But those on BOTH sides of the aisle - take the lobby money to help them get elected or re-elected.
Is my phone company neighbor right or wrong on this?
