Didn’t the government put rules in place to stop these irritating robocalls? Yes, there are new restrictions to help out, but there are also things every consumer can do to limit the onslaught.
Besides blocking phone numbers one by one or setting phones to “do not disturb,” phones have other methods to help filter out unwanted calls.
* Google Pixel: The screen of a Google Pixel phone will automatically turn red when a robocall or spammer is trying to contact you. If it is not active, go to settings, navigate to “spam and call screen,” select “call screen”, and then toggle on “Automatically screen and decline robocalls.” * Hiya: Available for $3.99 per month, Hiya has auto spam detection, reverse phone lookup, spam-check dialer, and blacklists numbers. Hiya also owns Mr. Number, which has similar offerings and costs.
* Truecaller: Available for $4.99 per month, Truecaller identifies and blocks spam calls and texts and maintains a community-based spam list. * Avoid saying the word “yes.” Your conversation is likely being recorded, and scammers can use the affirmation for fraudulent activities.
