(202) 292-1383

The auto-dialers work in this way; they call several numbers at once, and the first one to register with audio gets connected to a sales ****. If another **** is available, the second person gets that lucky loser. If no sales **** is available, you get ***g up on.  Should be illegal but we have a bunch of idiots that think it is some kind of right in this country to harass people on the phone unless you get on a list, even though the list means nothing anymore.  As for the charities, no legitimate charity calls you on the phone. Even if they have a real sounding name, they are NOT LEGIT. Tell them to never call a***n and **** up. Don't argue, don't say no, just tell them to never call a***n and **** up.  The worst fake charities are those police, veteran, fireman etc ones. They have NOTHING to do with those orgs, and only a tiny bit of cash goes to those groups, just enough to keep the callers out of jail.

It's some sales racket using automated calling software on a PC,  with s****ed caller ID name and perhaps s****ed number data.  The guy's a *****, too, doesn't know how to use the software so I'm sure results in a lot of ****ups.  Hasn't anyone else noticed he intended to s**** his ID with "DIST OF COLUMBIA", his geographical location, which a lot of telesales outfits do because it's illegal to make sales calls with caller ID info entirely blocked.  So this guy s****s his caller ID as "DIST OF COLOMBIA".  Note the spelling of the second word.  DIST OF COLOMBIA doesn't exist.  If it did, presumably it would be somewhere near Bogota in South America, not in area 202.  ;-)

This is a real nuisance to say the least.

I get called 8-9pm.  Sometimes the caller ****s up immediately.  Usually the caller waits 20-40 seconds in silence before ****ing up.  Once, someone used my first and last name.  I was so irritated with the constant calling that I said a few choice words.  But the calls continue.  Attempting to call back resulted in an immediate busy signal and then an inability to get through - as if it's blocked.

I got the call and it was purportedly someone trying to raise money for American Homeless Veterans. When I tried to explain that I donate to local charities he became insistent that I should let them send me some literature. I told him that was exactly why I work with local charities that don't waste the money I give them trying to get more money from other people and instead give it to the people I want to help. Anyway, long story short: it was a very sketchy call from a someone purporting to be in support of American Veterans. Unfortunately for the people they were trying to help, the guy on the phone was a complete a** and I will never give them money.

I just googled this same phone number and am quite surprised to see these comments.  Luckily I didn't answer it, though I thought about it because I have a brother who lives in the DC area. I've received several calls from this number...figured it may be student loans trying to get to me! Whew! Received call from 2022921383 at 10:45am 12/15/09and on 12/09/09 @ 5:37pm

Wow, everyone's getting this call at the same time.  I'm in San Antonio, so I got mine @ 7:49pm (CST).  When I don't know the caller, I answer and hit mute immediately.  This call, the waited in silence for about 20 seconds, then a woman asked "Manuel?" (my first name.)  She ***g up after that.

Got this call from the same number (202-292-1383) on 12-13-09. Answer and someone ****s up, nothing... It is a Sunday at 7:00PM and it ****es me off to no end that someone I don't know, whether it be a salesperson, prank or so****ing more sinister, calls on a Sunday at night! Get a life!

On 12/12/2009 at 12:59pm, this number (202-292-1383) showed up on My caller ID. I wasn't at home at the time, so do not know who it was that called.I'm with you ChiCo - your conspi**** theory is as believable as any.I know a few folks in that area, but I'm sure it wasn't them that dialed. I ran a reverse search on the website phonenumber dot com to no avial. The search resulted in an unlisted land line number in Westchester, DC.Any idea who's number this is anyone?

I think it is the CIA trying to find out where certain people are. a large telescope in the sky indicates that you are in your house and then a person calls to confirm that the telescope is working right, in other words if you answer the phone it indicates that the telescope was on target. it is part of keeping track of terriorist is my guess. They don't need to know where I am but they practice with the ma****e and test it this way so I have been told. I don't mind them playing a game to get experience.

Rec'd call at 6:33 pm, EST on Nov. 29, 2009.  It's a call from a landline phone,a District of Columbia phone number.  La***ude 38.90; Longitude -77.03.  Telephone company MCI Worldcom Communications - DC.  That's the information I got when I googled it.  I didn't answer the phone, because I don't know anyone from DC.  The caller did not leave a message on my answering ma****e.
