Avoid answering unknown land‑line calls, especially if the number shows as blocked or previously flagged. Let the call go to voicemail first; if it’s legitimate, the caller will usually leave a clear message. Use your carrier’s call‑blocking tools to add the number to a blacklist, and consider a third‑party spam‑filter app for extra protection. Periodically review your blocked list to ensure legitimate contacts aren’t inadvertently excluded. If you suspect a scam, report the number to the FTC or your telecom provider; they can investigate patterns and potentially block the source for other users. Stay vigilant and keep your personal info out of reach.
My landline received a call 40 minutes ago from this number, which had previously been blocked due to a suspicious call. Since I never pick up these calls and immediately block them, I'm unaware of the identity of the caller.
