I never answer calls from unknown numbers. I block those numbers as soon as they occur. If they leave a recorded message and I recognize they are legitimate, then I unblock them. These scam calls have all left messages. Thankfully with my iPhone XR I can read the transcription, immediately see it is a scam, delete the message and leave the number blocked. I agree that most of these scams are likely from foreign sources/locations.
The most prevalent annoying calls I get these days are from people wanting to buy my house for pennies on the dollar—not gonna happen! I even get texts from many of them. They get a nasty text sent back in return. Unfortunately I get a lot of snail mail from them too. These probably don’t qualify as scams, but it won’t end well for those who take them up on their lowball offers.
