I have been hammered with telemarketing calls this week! According to the company who keeps calling me, I entered to win a car in Las Vegas.  They’ve called me repeatedly, despite my objectives, despite informing them my number is on the Do Not Call List, and despite threats of filing a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission.  So, finally, I did file a complaint with the FTC.  If you’ve been harassed by telemarketers you think may be up to a scam, learn more about telemarketing fraud and what you can do to stop it!  Here are some resources for you:
