Telemarketing cranking up

I've gotten a call a day from what appear to be telemarketers from AT&T.  In two cases, the call began with a recorded message saying it was a telemarketing call from AT&T and giving the 800-288-2020 number to contact them.  Then, on the two calls that didn't get immediately hung up on (one without the recorded message), a live voice greeted me and asked me what programming I liked to watch, to which I replied "When I watch TV, I like to watch what is aired on U-Verse TV."

They're hard selling DIRECTV and DIRECTV STREAM and I told them I wanted no part of either.

shameful, no doubt the new partners pushing for sales, the sad part no one is going to tell the difference between scam callers and the real directv.
