Is there no way to stop these calls? Not really. I just add those numbers to my block list. Sure, they eventually get through using a different number but at least it makes them work harder to try to contact me.

I block it too but they always call from a new number and different city and state. How they do that to have so many numbers to call from!! Motherf............. !! It's pretty easy. The same method is used by the 'scam-baiters' to turn the tables on fake tech support/Amazon refund etc etc.

I use an app called Hiya that intercepts most spam calls
