I never answer calls when caller ID shows either Unidentified, Unknown or Out of Area. I don't answer calls that show a name I never heard of. I don't answer calls that come from a toll free number - 888, 877, 855, etc. Almost all of them disconnect on the 4th ring. If it is important the caller can leave a message and I will call back. Also, never answer the phone on the 2nd ring. These calls are tests and identify you as someone who will answer whenever the phone rings.
