Why are you putting up with junk callers? If you hear your telephone or cellphone ring, and you have to look at the CallerID information, you have already been disturbed and annoyed. The junk callers can be silently filtered out of you life, if you chose to do so.
If you have a landline, you need to buy a $90 device that will silently screen out junk calls. It called a Digitone Pro Series 2 Call Blocker.
You then program a “White List” of telephone numbers that you want to “ring through”. Telephone numbers or names that are not on the “White List” can only silently leave a voicemail. When you discover a new number to be added to your “White List”, that is easy to do. The junk callers will still attempt to call your landline, but they will be totally silenced. Junk callers almost never leave voicemail. Most people only have about 20 to 30 known telephone numbers that call you.
This device can also be programmed for a “Black List”. But “Black Lists” are totally ineffective. Junk callers can present you a fake telephone number or name with each call. There are billions of possible telephone number and name combinations.
After you setup that landline telephone screening device, the junk callers will never ring your landline again. The junk callers will still try, but they will silently fail! After that point in time, whenever your landline rings, it will be a caller you want to answer.
If you’re expecting a call from a doctor after an appointment from an unknown telephone number, you can temporarily open up the junk caller filtering.

If you have an iPhone, you can stop the junk callers very easily. Go to “Settings”, “Phone”, turn on “Silence Unknown Callers”. Unknown callers can still silently leave voicemail. Junk callers virtually never leave voicemail. Additional new telephone numbers can be added to your contact list, so those telephone numbers will ring through.
This feature can be turned off temporarily if you are expecting an unknown number after a doctors appointment. I don’t know if this important feature is available with a “Android” cellphone. If not, replace your cellphone with an iPhone. The iPhones usually are more expensive, but are superior in quality over the “Android” cellphones.
So, it’s your choice to stop being annoyed by the junk callers, if you want to remove the junk callers from your life!
