There's a question I've always asked, why are most people so willing to answer phone calls from numbers whose owners they do not know. My rules are simple, when asked for a phone number I usually either say I do not have a phone or refuse to give it—even if it greatly inconveniences me. Second, I never answer calls unless I know the person who is calling. If scammers can't reach one then one can't be scammed (at least not by phone).
