Ever wonder why that 800‑816‑5569 keeps ringing your phone at odd hours? The number is most often linked to Transworld Systems, a debt‑collection agency that repeatedly contacts people about old or disputed debts. Because the calls are frequent and often silent, they can feel like harassment. Block the number on your device and add it to the national Do‑Not‑Call registry. Request a written debt verification and, if the claim is invalid, send a cease‑and‑desist notice. Report persistent abuse to the FTC, your state attorney general, and the Better Business Bureau. Using a call‑filtering app can also keep unwanted calls out of your inbox.
