Hey all. I'm not sure if any of you have been victoms of this issue yet but just today I've been getting phone calls with politicians pre recording an add when you answer the phone. The number my caller id displayed was 0000000
Anyone else been a victom of this yet or have any ideas how to stop this? Ok tv is fine, but calling someone with a pre recorded add is worse! It's not even november yet!

Is it a new thing though? It doesn't happen over here, thank god, but according to my politics class, american politicians have been using that method of campaigning since the mid 90s.
