We have an app called NoMoRobo. It works on the land line when you sign that phone number up. Landline coverage is free. Coverage on our cell phones runs $19.99/year per phone number. The service currently has nearly 10,000,000 numbers listed as scammers and automatically blocks them. On our land line, the phone rings once and then the scammer is sent to a dead end. On our cell phones the phone doesn’t even ring.
It doesn’t block all of the scammer calls. Scammers can generate new spoofed numbers rather easily. It has cut the number of scam calls down dramatically. I’ll have a day were I’ll get 5 or 6 in a day, then my phone will be quite for several days. I suspect there are a few of these scammer outfits and they’re generating spoofed numbers once a week. That seems to be the pattern. Quite several days, then a deluge of numbers I add to the NoMoRobo app to block the new numbers for everyone using the app.
The majority of scam calls involve selling property I don’t own, timeshare exit or Medicare coverage. Every couple of years PAC’s blow up my phone with political adds.
