Obtain the company's name and address and tell the company not to call you again. The federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act enables you to sue for up to $1500 if the company continues to phone you after your instructions. You should have a record of each call with the date and time, name of the caller (even if it's a fake), and exactly what you told the telemarketer. If you get even 1 more call within 12 months you can file your claim in small claims court.
