If you're able to, it's worth it to set your phone to route unknown callers to voicemail. If it's important they'll leave a message.

I get about that a day, but have them silenced.

Do you know how many people request my services but don't answer when I call and I just hang up. frick em. I'm not desperate enough for a sale to leave a damn voicemail for every 150 calls a day that I make. If they don't answer, they'll get another call from me tomorrow, and I'm going to call every day until they answer and tell me to go frick myself or they buy.
I'm NOT leaving a voicemail, though.

AT&T has an activeamor mobile security app the is very effective.

Omg.. you're a spammer.
Look, my warranty is good, I already took my cruise and my grandkids aren't old enough to be in jail.

It comes in waves. I haven't gotten many recently, but some months I'm getting 3 a day.
Unfortunately, I can't block unknown numbers because I use this phone for my business.
But my phone does show some numbers as "Possible Spam." So I let those go to voicemail.

Oh yea, sure, I'm a spammer.
I've been trying to reach you about your fricking warranty but you won't answer.

A person selling their services who will not leave a voicemail is not someone I generally want to do business with.

I never get spam calls, but my phone rejects calls I actually want and sends them straight to voicemail. Even if I turn off spam filter and add the number as a contact. I'm not really that upset about it.

personally, i like to frick with them. i’ll do a few things if a call comes in and the phone says “possible spam”:
- burp when answering
- run to the bathroom and flush the toilet
- fart if the clip is loaded
- ask if they’re single and interested in a date
why not?

I don’t like doing business with someone so indecisive that they can’t answer their phone after submitting g a request for me to call their phone.

What pissea me off, is that one call isn't enough. I know it is software driven, bur the MF calls 2 or 3 times in a row. As soon as I reject one call, my phone rings again from the same number.

If I don't answer, it's because I cannot or I don't have you in my contacts. If I'm dealing with a client, I'm not answering the phone. How about you?
I will never understand a person who thinks they are more important than a potential client, but to each his own.

I blocked the numbers I don't know. I get maybe one every two weeks.
Posted on 3/6/26 at 7:27 pm to Oilfieldbiology
There’s a way to block them, I was getting 15-20 a day and set my phone up now I get none.
Do some research

Since we have been bombing the call centers in Iran my spam calls have been greatly reduced
