    Once...just once...I'd like to be left alone with one of these phone scamming assholes. Then I'd challenge the DA to charge me and find a jury that would find me guilty.

    I have been getting them and I just have a blast annoying them. Talk in circles, say nonsensical things. Ask for free stuff and zero % interest rates!!! I just blurt out random things about being in Canada etc etc.
    Frustrate them.

    The vast majority of calls I get are true 'robocalls'. There's no live person on the other end, even though the recordings try to make it seem like there is. Sometimes it's just background noise from a call center somewhere.

    Yup, spoofed caller ID. I get probably 6 per day with my mobile prefix.

    You're not in my contacts list, or an expected caller, you get rejected.

    I call myself, at least that is what my caller ID says. It is my name with my number.
    Never answered it, afraid it might send me into another dimension. (Matrix style?)

    I hate spammers.

    I get at least 30 calls a day to my business number, a mix of people trying to fax spam me on my voice number, dead line calls which hang up after a few seconds, and true robocalls. Any number I see more than once gets blocked in perpetuity, but with VoIP and caller id spoofing, it's like trying to bail the water out of the Titanic with a teaspoon. Phone spammers are high on my list of potential subjects for gruesome medical experiments.

    Got a call from myself the other day. Was too busy talking to myself to talk to myself, so I sent myself to voicemail and then sat there and thought about what I'd done. I mean, I know how I hate getting sent to voicemail and yet I did it to myself anyway.

    I have this call blocker on my mobile phone: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...k.donotdisturb

    It updates from the FCC spam caller list and has the option to just send to voicemail.

    If you are an AT&T customer with an iPhone there is a great app called ATT call protect. Catches a lot of spam and marketing calls.
