I get daily calls from this number early in the morning, with a message intended for somone who doesnt have this number. I wont be calling back, as that would only validate my number as a 'good' number. One strategie might be to pick up and press as many numbers as posible in 30 seconds, which could potentionally activate the 'not a valid number' feature on their autodialer.

Expert Opinion
Late at night, the phone rings and a voice claims to be from a debt‑collection outfit. The safest move is to hang up without sharing personal data like Social Security or banking details. If the call seems to be from the National Recovery Agency or a similar collector, let it go to voicemail and note the time. Register the number with your carrier’s call‑blocking service, and consider adding it to a third‑party blocklist. Report persistent harassment to the FTC’s Do Not Call Registry and to your state’s consumer‑protection agency. Keep records of each call – dates, times, and any recorded messages – to aid any future dispute.
