    So I do something strange. I answer the call and mute myself then go back and block it just so that I can be sure it’s a scam call. If it is, they won’t answer right away and are waiting for you to speak to they can play the automated message.

    They usually hang up after a few seconds. It has not not worked for months. I’m also getting less spam calls than I used to in recent weeks.

Do what I do. Hold tight and pretend it’s a plan!


@PurpdaBurpPurp: I wish I could do that! But I have clients calling all the time (I'm a graphic artist), so I can't afford to just ignore unknown phone numbers, even when they aren't in my state.

We’re all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?
