Similarly, the federal Do Not Call list, used to stop domestic spammers from calling you, is used by international spammers as a source of known active phone numbers to call. Because you need to actively add yourself to the list, so it’s a pretty solid list of active phone numbers. And the list is only enforced domestically, so all of the callers from overseas know they’ll never be prosecuted for using it.
That mistake I did make. God knows no one pays attention to this list, domestic or abroad. I talked to an attorney and he said they have to call you several times for it to be a violation.
