Spam telemarketing has pretty much been made illegal barring some specific exceptions carved out by the TCPA. So, long story short, every time I manage to identify one of the spam callers calling my phone... I sue them and get paid. It's turning out to be a pretty nice gig. =)

It's really hard to identify some of these spam callers sometimes though. As you might imagine, they hang up when they sense any kind of danger, like asking for company names or website addresses. Right now for example, I have a call back number for this company, it works, but it has a vanilla voicemail and they are never going to call me back.

How could I get the owner of this phone number? Any advanced methods that aren't the whois sites?

Duuuude.

Theres this credit card that tells you every company that tries to charge the card so you get the whole business info. No need to hunt down the voip number and what not, just give them the credit card for whatever they claim they are selling and it never goes through but it gets all the info from their business. And unlike the phone info which could be fake, the info you get from the charge attempt is legit cause otherwise they could not get the money. You get the business name who to sue right off the bat.

I'm not on my computer but let me look for the info.
