How to Handle Harassing or Unsolicited Telemarketing Calls

  • Record the time, date and phone number if caller ID is available on your phone, as this will assist University Police in tracing the call.
  • Never provide credit card information, social security numbers, passwords or other sensitive information over the phone. 
  • If calls continue, contact University Police. University Police is responsible for investigating all telephone calls that are made with the intent to annoy, harass, threaten, alarm or engage in fraudulent activity.
