If you have an iPhone, you can screen out the scam and telemarketers by going to “Settings”, “Phone”, and then turn on “Silence Unknown Callers”. Then the unknown callers can leave voicemail. Junk callers usually never leave voicemails.

If you have T-Mobile service, they have additional junk call blocking.

If you have an Android cellphone, then you can only block unknown callers, and they can’t leave a voicemail, which is a poorly designed way to stop junk callers, because legitimate unknown callers can’t leave a voicemail. One solution is to upgrade from an Android cellphone to an iPhone cellphone. Another solution is to use T-Mobile service that offers other junk caller blocking options.

You can also stop junk callers on your landline with a Digitone Call Blocker. You don’t have to keep putting up with the junk callers that are constantly annoying you. It’s your choice to live with the junk callers or free yourself from the junk callers.
