I usually ignore the number, unknown. On a whim I answered and they hung up.
How can we stop this abuse??
I've reported them as well. I've also contacted the Attorneys General offices in Newark, NJ not too far from where I live. So, they are aware. They did mention though that when they cut-off their service they just get another number and the harassing calls start all over again from another number.
They told me they are called 'zombie debt collectors' and that they purchase old debt and if they don't collect on this old debt then they lose a lot of $$$$ that they paid out-of-pocket. So, they keep calling and calling, even though most people don't answer. These people are not the brightest bulb in the pack, so to speak.
I think they are as stupid as it gets. The debt they purchase is usually old debt. Most often, the person has moved or changed phone #'s ... or the debt is beyond the Statue Of Limitation (SOL varies from state-to-state) but they keep calling anyway. What a waste.
If you pay them to get them off your back, you are actually admitting to the debt and you could be liable for the rest of it ... and they will be on you like maggots on road-kill .
Don't answer. They are trying to get into an argument with you or break people down so they will pay for something they technically don't owe just to get these creeps off of their backs.
Don't answer or if you do answer blow a loud whistle into the phone and then hang up on these psycho-thugs.
I have an ill child and I do not need these stupid calls.

If "Vitelity" shows up in caller id, then they didn't even bother to change caller id settings, but that may actually help, since if they did, they could be spoofing it pretending to be some other company or number.
Contact the telecom, Vitelity LLC, to report harassing calls from one of their clients.
