Bottom Line Problem

Starting on Friday, and continuing today, I've been getting frequent calls on my landline telephone from scam telemarkerts.  These calls come every couple of minutes.  Three of those calls came while I was crafting this post.

The problem of scam telemarkerts has been going on for a while and no one can seeming do anything about it.  These scam artists don't respect the Do Not Call List, frequent reports to the FCC do nothing, picking up the phone and telling them not do call doesn't stop the calls, and not picking up the phone doesn't stop these calls.  It seems that the only thing that can stop these calls is to not have a landline telephone.  These scam artist don't call my cell phone, they only call my landline telephone.  It seems, at least to me, that the only way to stop these calls is to not have a landline telephone.

Due the to fact that the only way to stop these calls is to not have a landline telephone, these scam telemarkers have become a bottom line problem for companies that provide landline telephone service.  These companies include CenturyLink.  Is CenturyLink doing anything to solve this bottom line problem for them?  As near as I can tell, no.  This must change, and it must change NOW.
