    Robo calls I do not like you!

    So I'm tied of getting them.

    I decided on a way to screen them.
    You call, awesome! I'd love to talk to you.

    I don't know your number, you're going to voice mail.
    You don't leave a voice mail, fine.
    I'm blocking the number.

    Hopefully it works.

    I know it's not perfect. I know it's fraught with pitfalls, what if someone needs ministering to?
    What if ad naseum......

    Yes I'm on the Do not call list.

    I've been blocking those numbers since I learned to do it on my iPhone. Its been over a year. Blocked 2 today. They still call. Ill keep blocking them but not sure it helps.

    I did pick up the phone and talk a lot of mess to a guy with a thick indian accent and they stopped for a while but theyre back.

        I've been blocking them all as well. However, they now have learned to use local exchanges.

          Been doing that way for a while now, if they call, no message, number blocked. If they call and leave a message and it’s robo call, gets blocked. I think I have around 100 numbers blocked so far.

            Get the app 'HIYA'. Screens all calls and often will give you a warning on the call screen such as Fraud, Scam, etc. Easy to search numbers on the app and get an info and/or block them.

              Get the app Robokiller, it costs a little $ but is well worth it.

              It will even play a variety of pre-recordings that repeatedly say stuff like "Hello? Hello?" or "That sounds great can you tell me more?" and you can listen to telemarketers go on for 20 minutes talking to a recording until they figure out they're being duped.

              It will block the robo calls automatically and you can turn off notifications for it so you never see them. Fight fire with fire.

                  Pretty much what I do now. If they leave a voicemail I'll check to make sure its not a call I should have answered. If its not, it gets blocked.
