Now we can only hope that all the nuisance callers, who used to call your landline, get your cellphone number.

But at least with a smart phone you can easily block the unwanted numbers...


That does not help much when the spammers are using caller ID
spoofers. The number keeps changing.


You're right. I don't even bother blocking them unless I see the same caller and number several
times. I just don't answer unrecognized numbers. If folks start to leave a message, and I recognize
them, then they'll get answered. Otherwise it doesn't happen.
