Same for me. I’ve missed some important calls from random numbers and it’s frustrating. There’s even a group of spammers that call twice back to back, I think to get around the setting that allows double calls to come through. My iPhone helps a bit in that it will ring if I’ve ever called that number before. It’s funny because I think having a setting where only apple accounts are allowed would be welcome, but I think that only works on iMessages since calls can be easily falsified. I’m looking forward to the day that Apple will know if a device is actually originating the call and pass that info to me. I trust Apple more than any other org to actually care about eliminating spam calls. Sad state of affairs.

> It’s funny because I think having a setting where only apple accounts are allowed would be welcome, but I think that only works on iMessages Most of my iMessage spam seems to be from fly-by-night Apple accounts (often setup with @gmail.com and @outlook.com email addresses). It surprises me that Apple seems to make it really difficult to report these as spam accounts (it's like five taps in iMessages to even find the right profile page to do so) and at this point because I get so many of them I've gotten to just deleting the threads rather than reporting them as spam because it is too many steps to report and the spammers are just cycling through random email addresses anyway so you never see more than one message from the same "Apple account".
