Spam Calls

I don't get many because so don't answer them.

I have fun with them. I say i can’t talk for long as I’ve got a lot of blood to mop up and ask them not to tell anyone. I start asking them questions ….how long they have worked for the company….what hobbies they have …. I say I am ordering a takeaway and what do they suggest ? I told one man I didn’t have a washing machine …..he asked how I washed my clothes ….i said clothes ! What clothes, I don’t wear any …. He soon put the phone down I say ….oh thank goodness you phoned ….im doing a crossword and I’m stuck on a few clues ….can you help ? I say ….Accident ! Oh if you say so I must have had one ….what happened ….did I survive ?

I have a lot of that and they are really annoying. i do not answer them and I usually block the numners

I experienced those. Not anymore, except for a few. I adjusted my phone settings so the suspicious calls will not go through.

@popciclecold That’s rough. I get hardly any now but I treat them as a source of fun if I chose to answer them. Quite often I start to sing to the caller and if they are wanting me to answer market survey questions I tell them I charge £3.50 for each answer, payable in advance. If they ask how I am I start to tell them about my bouts of vomiting and diarrhoea- the explosive kind, and in Technicolor. Another great one is to say “I’m on the toilet right now, can you call back later?” Maybe this is why I don’t get so many any more.

I also receive plenty of those! It's terrible! Now, I block them. There is a setting on my phone to block spam text and calls.

I may get one or two a week. Do you have a smartphone? My phone actually automatically blocks most of them. That many spam calls has to be fixable.

I almost never receive spam calls, may be a couple a month. Our provider does a good job stopping those calls.

I don't get that many but I constantly block the numbers they use. It seems to have helped

No but I get a lot of idiot emails.

I block such calls and my phone service provider has an in-built system to block most. I hardly get any now.

I screen my calls and don't answer unless I know the caller.

Spam calls can be super annoying. When I'm on important calls, I silence unknown callers or set my phone to Do Not Disturb mode.
