I generally ignore calls that come from phone numbers I don’t know. I’m averaging approx one of such calls about every 2 days.

You are doing better than me. I average maybe 8 calls a day from numbers I do not know. Most are sales calls from one type or another. I have had calls purportedly from Social Security and Microsoft among others.

Be thankful. We don’t even have a landline any more but our cable provider will charge us more if we take less of their “services” so we still have a “number”. It is infuriating because whenever you turn the TV on you will get in fairly rapid succession several “phone calls” that show up on the screen. Even though there has been no one answer that line for ten years. And you can’t even press the button that clears that crap because when you do it pops right back up in milliseconds. So you have to wait until the comp;utter that is calling gives up to see the bottom third of the damn screen. I keep begging my wife to stop the “phone service” but she won’t because the cable TV will cost more if we don’t get the phone, too. Even though there hasn’t been an actual phone on the damn line for 15 years.
