Yes, I know, you're a business. So you have to answer it when it comes in. AND, once you do, and you quickly determine it's a spam call, you hang up and immediately add them to the blocked caller list. Next time they call, they get nowhere.

Doesn't interfere with legitimate callers, but will stop the spammers. Yes, after the first couple of weeks, they'll switch to different numbers. And you'll block those, etc. But over time? They'll be gone. The better Panasonic models let you block up to 250 numbers at a time. If you run out of room, just delete some of the older ones. The spammers have stopped using them by now anyway.

You're a sweetie, but it's my HOME number that's besieged. Moreover, it's a Panasonic system, and I do block them--but they are using VOIPs and faux-numbers, and getting around them. I'm telling you, it's insanity. INSANITY.
