...see the writing on the wall, and does the same, here are the numbers: Total number of calls ending in PrivacyManager: 38 By Context: homeline: 38 3. MENUS When I started, I didn't really consider that presenting the calling party with a set of choices (as to whom to talk to) as a possible telemarketing deterrent. But, months of watching the system in action has led me to he conclusion that is exactly that. Not all telemarketers call from unlisted numbers. If I'm not getting their call, and neither Zapateller nor PrivacyManager affects them, then I'm doing something right in my menus. They...

Hi, I have the following requirements I'd like to implement with asterisk: 1. Asterisk notifies interested PC's on the network that there's an incoming call so that the telemarketing app can bring up the customer automagically 2. If a telemarketer makes a call and the customer isn't there and they arrange a callback, the callback is diverted to the originating telemarketers phone first for a few rings, and then to the main switchboard. I think number 1 would be implemented...

Hi, I have some annoying telemarketer calling me on a recurring basis, but I'd like to discourage them a bit and have some fun. I found this: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+AEL+Telemarketer+Torture but the link to download the sound files is dead (wyoming.e-tools.com is NXDOMAIN). Anyone have a copy of these? -Adam

does anyone have a recorder GSM file that emulates the Telco's "if you are a telemarketer please hangup now" recording? I don't see one in the sounds dir. the ZapATEller works great for computerized callers but if a human hears this message asking them to go away they have to. Isn't that right? Dave

The US has a Do Not Call list to which people can subscribe to prevent being called by advertisers. Federal laws (strengthened by some state and more local laws) assign penalties for calling people/phones on the DNCL. Is there a query gateway that Asterisk (or an app using Asterisk) can filter through to ensure a number is OK to call (not on the list) before calling it? -- (C) Matthew Rubenstein

Hello-- I submitted of extensions.conf that contains my "telemarketer torture" menus, last week sometime to the mailing list. I got back a note from the mailing list machinery, stating that it was too big, and would be subject to approval. No such approval came, I guess. Either I missed it, or it didn't rate, or the moderator just plain hasn't gotten around to it yet. So, I

Does anyone know if there is a known list of telemarketers? Something like http://whocalled.us/ with an easier access? We could all benefit if there was such a thing :-) If there is enough interest, I could put up a database that everyone can benefit from. I just need some suggestions on: (1) Adding new numbers based on community responses (some rule to sanity check) (2) Method that everyone

I have been bugging by a telemarketer who does not take any cue at all. So I look up the Asterisk Handbook and send his call with the respect caller id to my voicemail. Has any one implemented any of this feature with database for more caller ids to be included?? David Kwok

I'm curious is it possible to direct a call to an extension that takes you straight to music on hold, but NOT the standard music on hold. The boss suggested something he wondered if it was possible. Example: Someone calls (Telemarketer), we answer tell them to hold while we 'redirect' them to extension (Someone Important) 666 which is a separate music on hold pool of mp3's from

I have 2 asterisk servers - serverA and serverC - connected via IAX2. On serverA, I have a "telemarketer hold" extension which, if I transfer a caller into it, loops around playing music & "please wait" messages, until they give up & hang up the phone. Also on serverA, I have a custom devstate, which lights a lamp on a phone connected to serverA, which tells me if

Hello, I am searching for a program set to monitor telemarketing telephone activities to satisfy the legal requirements of some contractual clients.

You could accept as the "passcode" the caller punching in their own phone#, then checking that against your whitelist. Lets associates get past the challenge when using someone else's phone, without their remembering some arbitrary passcode. And strangers or barred old associates who abuse it can get an earful about how you're suing them for wire fraud. Preferably after you

Has anyone had any luck with the DEV LITE KIT? I'm getting very erradic behavior. I'll start it up and it will answer maybe one or two calls then hang leaving my phone in an off hook state or giving a loud shrill tone. It keeps saying "Red Alarm". Once it hangs it will not answer the phone again until I reboot. Starting and stopping Asterisk or reloading the drivers does not
