Unfortunately if anyone is being plagued with such calls there is absolutely nothing that can be done about these. As they're almost always calling from the subcontinent, they cannot be bound to the TPS. Also, you can not block them with anonymous caller rejection as they almost always call from a line where caller line indentification (CLI) isn't supported; in other words when dialling 1471 'we do not have the callers number to return the call'; therefore the ACJ cannot block it.
On the few occasions that you are actually able to speak to someone you'll never get any useful information out of them at all. As I know from previous experience, they tend to bulk dial again and again a certain block of numbers for a few weeks until they move on to another block of numbers. Reason for retrying is that they know they won't get to speak to every single person on every active number within that number range first time around.
I find it deplorable and utterly abhorent but as said above unfortunately there is very little that can be done.

Thank you for that information the bit about

Was not explained to me, but I will add some and it only some have actually given me details and have been slapped.
