Everyone has their own strategy. I only answer calls from my own contact list. I have some friends who literally turned off the ringer and don't answer any calls. You have to leave them a message, or just text them and ask them to call.
- fortran77 7y agoYou realize this fails because you can spoof Caller ID. The Caller ID was from the bank, so if you had the bank in your contact list, you'd have no protection.
- _-___________-_ 7y agoIf your contact list is small enough to be people that you know well, though, it's not a bad policy. Most scammers are not going to be equipped to imitate my brother's or my wife's voice and mannerisms well enough for me to believe them.
- rootusrootus 7y agoI can count on zero fingers the number of times my bank has called, however. I don't have them on my contact list. I have a few businesses, mostly family, friends, and colleagues. Spoofing one of my contacts is a pretty tall order for a robocaller outfit, and likely would raise the cost of the call high enough to make it unviable.
