Revenge is a dish best served cold. And legal. And profitable.
These are real stories from real DNCme members who got tired of being victims and decided to fight back. Spoiler alert: Justice never sounded so good.
The "Car Warranty" Takedown: $52,900 Revenge
Meet Greg from Ohio.
For 8 months straight, Greg got THE CALL. You know the one: "We've been trying to reach you about your car's extended warranty..."
He didn't even OWN a car. Sold it 3 years ago. Walks to work. Hard to need a car warranty when you don't have a car.
But did that stop the calls? Nope. 87 calls over 8 months. Sometimes 3 per day.
Greg's Revenge Plan:
Instead of losing his mind, Greg documented everything. Joined DNCme. Started actually ANSWERING the calls to get more details.
"What's your company name?"
"What's your business address?"
"Which car warranty am I supposedly renewing?"
They'd usually hang up. But each call was documented. Each hang-up was more evidence of fraud.
The Payoff:
DNCme's tech traced the calls to 4 different companies all using the same script. Greg's lawyer filed against all 4.
Companies tried to claim they "had permission" to call. Greg's lawyer pointed out he didn't even own a car.
Settlement offers came fast. Total: $52,900.
Greg's favorite part? Using that money to buy his first car in 3 years. Paid cash. No warranty needed, thanks for asking.
Justice rating: 10/10 🎯
The Wrong Number Windfall: $73,450
Meet Jessica from Texas.
Jessica kept getting debt collection calls for someone named "Michael Rodriguez."
Jessica is neither Michael nor Rodriguez. She's had this number for 6 years.
But did the debt collectors care? Of course not. 143 calls over 4 months. Multiple companies. All looking for Michael.
The Breaking Point:
One collector called at 11:47 PM. Woke up Jessica's baby. Baby cried for 2 hours. Jessica had work in the morning.
That night, angry and exhausted, she Googled "how to sue robocallers." Found DNCme. Signed up immediately.
The Beautiful Revenge:
Every previous call? Documented and logged. The late-night call? TRIPLE damages for calling after 9 PM.
Jessica sent demand letters to 6 different companies. Her message: "I've told you 20+ times I'm not Michael Rodriguez. Pay up."
5 of the 6 settled within weeks. The 6th tried to fight. Bad move. Judge awarded MAXIMUM damages of $1,500 per call instead of the standard $500.
Total collected: $73,450
Jessica's favorite detail? She donated $10,000 to a sleep research charity "in honor of all the sleep these companies stole from me and my baby."
Calls stopped completely after the first settlement. Turns out companies share "do not call" lists when you're actively suing people.
Justice rating: 11/10 (bonus point for charity move) 🌟
The Solar Panel Spam Army: $31,200 Sweet Victory
Meet Tom from California.
Tom lives in a condo. Can't install solar panels even if he wanted to. But somehow, 9 different solar companies had his number on their "hot leads" list.
For 6 weeks, he got 4-5 solar calls per day. Different companies, same pitch: "We see you qualify for free solar panels..."
Tom asked each one: "Where did you get my number?"
Answers ranged from silence to "our database" to one honest salesman who admitted "we bought a lead list."
Tom's Strategy:
He started saying YES to appointments. Then documented when they'd call to confirm. Each confirmation call = another violation.
52 calls documented total. All to a guy who: (1) lives in a condo, (2) rents (doesn't own), and (3) never expressed interest in solar.
The Reckoning:
Tom's lawyer sent demand letters to all 9 companies. The letters included a fun detail: "My client can't even install solar panels. He rents a condo. You called him 52 times anyway."
Every company settled. None wanted to go to court and explain to a judge why they kept calling a renter about home solar installations.
Total settlement: $31,200
Tom used the money to... install a small solar panel on his balcony. For his phone charger. Because he has a sense of humor.
Justice rating: 9/10 😄
The "I Work Here" Gotcha: $18,750
Meet Sarah, IT Manager at a mid-size company.
Sarah started getting robocalls about business loans. To her personal cell. During work hours.
Here's the kicker: Her company's phone system shows her WHO'S behind these calls. Because, you know, she manages the phone system.
23 calls, all from the same operation using different spoofed numbers. Sarah traced them all back to one lead generation company.
The Power Move:
Sarah documented everything with technical precision. Call routes. VoIP headers. Digital fingerprints. The works.
Then she called the company's CEO directly (she found his number through business registrations).
"Hi, this is Sarah. Your company called me 23 times illegally. I'm an IT manager, so I have detailed evidence of every call including your real company info behind the spoofed numbers. We can settle this now, or I can file in federal court. Your choice."
Result:
CEO's lawyer called within 2 hours. Settlement offer: $18,750.
Sarah accepted. Calls stopped immediately. She suspects the company now screens their lead lists for anyone in tech.
Justice rating: 10/10 for the direct approach 📞
The Marathon Settlement: $127,300
Meet David from Florida.
David wins the "most patient revenge" award. He documented robocalls for 18 months.
Why so long? He wanted to build an absolutely airtight case. 327 documented violations. Spreadsheets. Audio recordings. Screenshots. The full CSI treatment.
Multiple companies. Multiple violations. All meticulously documented.
The Epic Payoff:
David's lawyer filed 12 separate claims. Some small claims, some federal.
It took another 8 months to settle everything. But when the dust cleared:
Total settlements: $127,300
After legal fees: $82,745
Time invested: Maybe 30 hours total over 18 months
Hourly rate: $2,758/hour
David retired early. Seriously. The settlements let him quit his job 2 years ahead of schedule.
Justice rating: 12/10 for sheer determination 🏆
Funny Yet True Robocall Payouts
The "My Phone is Tapped" Guy:
One member kept telling robocallers "I think my phone is tapped by the FBI." They'd panic and hang up. He still documented each call. $14,500 settlement. The FBI was never involved.
The Grandmother Scam Reversal:
78-year-old Ruth got "IRS scam" calls. Instead of falling for it, she sued. At her settlement meeting, she told the company's lawyer: "I survived the Depression. You think I'm scared of your fake IRS calls?" $22,100 settlement. Standing ovation from her bridge club.
The Teenager's College Fund:
17-year-old got spam calls on his mom's old phone. Mom helped him document and sue. Settlement: $19,400. Covered his first year of college. Now he tells everyone robocalls paid for his education.
