My number is unremarkable and I still get a half dozen spam/scam calls a day. An extra one in six months would go unnoticed. If you're not in my contact list, you go straight to voicemail.
- crb3 4y agoWe get that half dozen as what we call 'ghost calls' -- the caller has hung up by the time the outgoing message ends. It might have something to do with my putting SIT tones at the beginning of that outgoing message. If their autodialer doesn't drop the call entirely, it triggers their message, so we hear it start partway through; either way, we know not to pick up.
