I can block repeated spam calls too.

Good, but they use a hundred different numbers so blocking one or two or even 20 isn't a lot of help.

Another thing: I’ve been getting a lot of recorded spam calls on my cell. Since my business sometimes comes from referrals in which past clients suggest that folks call me I can’t just ignore all calls I don’t recognize. But I’ve discovered that if I accept the call but say nothing for a few seconds the autodialer hangs up and moves on to the next victim. If there’s a person on the line you can usually hear them breathing, or they say (hello?) after five seconds or so.

I get 2-3 non recognized calls a day on my cell. Never answer them and if they don’t leave a message block them. They just keep coming.

You are right at that, blocking just slows them down.
The IRS is going to arrest me.
My computer has a problem and I need to grant remote permission.
I can save money on my credit card transfer.
The police ball needs donations.
I may qualify for a free pain relieving knee brace.
A free trip to Vegas.
A free cruise.

There’s more of course.
