SCAM artists spoofed CallID to
FRAUD DataMine Phishing for ANY personal information!
Protect yourself! SAY NOTHING! 2 second silence is recorded to gather intel on you, then all data is saved in their database and used to pry more from you the next time they call. And they WILL call again. Answer no questions. Don't even verify your name! Tell them NOTHING except:
"Do not call. We are registered on the national do not call list. Each violation will be prosecuted at $500 penalty. DO NOT CALL!" then disconnect and
dial *57 to send a call trace to law enforcement.

Callers claim to be Ann from Political Polls of America http://www.politicalopinionsofamerica.org or other lies. If you contact them in any way, such as "Take us off your list" opt-out online or by dialing 1 or 2, then you are instead validating that a human ear is responding to the Turing Test and placed permanently ON their SUCKERS LIST. The only valid information on their website is a regurgitated gallup.com RSS newsfeed, another trick to appear legitimate. Nowhere on the site is there a telephone number or address or even a way to engage their services = RED FLAG!
"Political Survey" is their excuse to circumvent the National Do Not Call regulations. They claim if I take the survey I'd receive a free 2 day cruise to the Bahamas or a gift card. Truth is - hard sell of condo-timeshare! There are actually two scams here, the initial cold-call canvassers who get paid by the "free vacation" crew who trap you on a cruise for high pressure vacation rental sales.
They also abuse these numbers:
253-382-9912 360-474-3924 502-468-5198 502-632-4428 502-873-0246 503-902-8103 971-229-1183.
