These days I don't answer any calls I don't recognize unless I'm expecting a call but don't know their number.

I figure that any calls I ignore will leave a message if it's important.

Whatever they're selling is my guess then they'll think you're so poor that they can't get any money out of you.  Just mess with them until they hang up on you.  :)

I've done that now and then but it got boring after a while.

Tell the caller that they need to talk to Lenny, the homeowner and then

Forward the call to the "Lenny Bot" at 1-347-574-7296.

Click on the Lenny call below.

Here's the story of Lenny.

After I get a nuisance call, I click on the circle to the right of the number, scroll down to the block number prompt and click it. It takes a little time initially, but soon I was getting no spam calls

i dont answer the scam calls either but i want them to STOP

Try nomorobo.com  It helped me get rid of lots of those calls.

The other option is tell the caller you work for the FBI. 😁😁😁

I didn't say it would stop everything...just reduce the number of those sleazy calls.
