@Monikaj98

There is not much you can do but keep on blocking those numbers.

You can check in the settings on your calling app some phone have a built in spam filter you can enable it or make more strict if you have one

@Monikaj98 There are Android apps that supposedly block spam calls but I don't know which is worth trying and you need to be careful what you download, but you could try checking out reviews via a search engine. I've found that Apple's Live Voicemail is a game changer for my iPhone since it enables stopping the calls before they get to Public Mobile voicemail although I do have to hit the iPhone voicemail symbol to intercept the unknown numbers. This means no having to log in to PM voicemail every time a spammer leaves a message. You need an iPhone that can run ios 17 for that. I'm finding the majority of spam calls these days seem to come from the USA.
