CallerCenter is a bulletin board for victims of telemarketing scams, and/or just plain harassment, like frequent "robo-calls" from the same company. The complaints sometimes contain useful information, even (purportedly) the name and address of the company (NOT guaranteed to be reliable information!). Pros: information about "spoofing" and legislative attempts to deal with the problem. Cons: search of website is by phone number only, not name of company or other alphabetic identifying info. Bottom line: this is a HUGE problem which the Federal "Do Not Call" Registry (in the USA) simply fails to address. Government has only begun to study the whole "spoofing" issue, so we'll continue to be harassed by telemarketers for the foreseeable future. But at least CallCenter.com will make us feel less alone.
PS: see the SiteJabber reviews of the "LifeHacker" website, which offers suggestions for ways to block unwanted calls.

saved me from getting scammed by a bestbuy gift card scam, read a comment on that site just before following instructions in SMS message. Thank you!
