How can I stop getting so many junk faxes?

I'd block the sender's fax numbers, but I never know the sender's fax numbers because they're not listed at the top of the faxes. I can't report them to anyone because without an identifying fax number, I don't know where they're coming from. It's getting really out of hand and I need to know what to do about it. Any suggestions?

    That's a tough one; You need to find a way to block unavailable phone #s. Call your phone carrier and ask at a large electronics store. The source of the problem is that someone has identified and sold your fax number to these parasites. You might even consider changing the number. Get a new one that isn't easily identified by a random dialer, and make sure that it is unlisted. Also make sure the phone co. doesn't give out the new one via automated recording when the old # is dialed. Good luck.
