Good comment, JAGGY!

As I understand it, just not answering won't help.
Once it goes to voice mail, they now have confirmation that it is a valid number.
Sometimes if you answer and wait long enough to their spiel, they will give you an option to 'opt out.'
My guess though, is even if you do that they sell your number to another scammer.
Oh the hassle of living in the 21st Century.
