Call the telephone company, ask them how to handle such unwanted harassing calls, they should guide you on what to do, and will perhaps get the police involved - you just need to ask them how to handle these calls.

So call the police and the phone company and report it. Normally there are ways to block specific numbers, but with that, just report it

I suggest you use the feature *57 to trace the call, I believe that you must trace the call four times to start an investigation. If you don't have that feature available call your phone company and tell them what's going on. You will need to speak to their annoying calls division. Some companies charge $1.00 for the call trace feature, but you can request this money back once you go to court, as well as court fees.

Document every call with date time and even seconds. They store print outs that can be easily traced with your records. Its actually a federal offense, due to the FCC Federal communications commission regulating most of the communications. The phone co. takes this VERY seriously. But you MUST prosecute if you chose to get them involved in that capacity! I heard a fellow was fined a million $$$ Nothing to play with.. You may want to take FR_chucks advice. Just block the number and the police will just take a report. Another phone could be used then , but that just builds your case..

One of the best thing you can do would be to call your phone company and tell them about the harassing phone calls, and also if you feel threatened go to the police department and make a police report

Lots of good advise above.

I would call the police. If you have Caller ID and also any recordings of messages from either of them, then that will help
