Do Not Call protection in Missouri
Missouri is one of the states that maintains its own Do Not Call registry alongside the federal National Do Not Call Registry, so telemarketers calling Missouri numbers are expected to check both lists. Registering on the federal list at donotcall.gov is free and never expires; the state list is administered separately and may have its own registration process and renewal period.
Whatever your state does, the federal National Do Not Call Registry applies, and the Telephone Consumer Protection Act gives you a private right of action against certain unlawful calls. Report unwanted calls at the FCC complaint centre and fraud at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.

Where do the calls reported in Missouri come from?

Because caller ID is easily spoofed, a call reported in Missouri may have been placed from anywhere in the world and may have displayed a Missouri number that belongs to an uninvolved person. Area code alone tells you nothing reliable about a caller's location.
