police & private calls.

does anybody know exactly what would happen if the police were called about private calls? because ive been getting private calls for like almost 6 months now & the only thing keeping me from calling the police is that i dont wanna get that person (people) in trouble. it wouldnt end up in courts or anything? there not too horrible like cursing or threats but theyre getting a lot more frequent this month.

or does anybody have a 1800 number theyd be willing to allow me to use for a while :].

You can call the phone company and tell them you need your number changed because you are getting harassing calls and they should change your number one time for free for harassing calls. You'd have to be careful they never get your new number.

If someone is harrassing you it is a crime, and yes if the police investigate most likely it can go to trial and yes you may have to go testify.

If it is not bad enough for you to want someone to get into trouble, it is not bad enough to call the police over

Maybe put a recording on your voicemail
All calls are subject to being recorded for further investigation be careful what you say.
No blocked calls will be answered.
or something that will make them concerned that they need to stop

Unless the someone is a collection agency. Just saying. Something seems fishy here, if a new number didn't stop the calls.

If that's the case, a backbone should be grown and the "friends" chatted with - "Don't call me!"

I think you should just ignore it. Eventually the people will see that what a stupid childish thing they are doing doesnt affect you. When they call just dont answer. Just ignore them they will go away, its sorta like an ex boyfreind. LOL

Comments on this post
achampio21 agrees: Ignoring them prob will work. They are doing it for attention, just like you said...like an ex lol
