How to prevent harassing phone calls
Blocking or filtering
The Google app on your Android phone has a spam filter that can block pesky robocalls. Just click the three dots in the corner and select Settings from there to find all of these options, including one called ‘Caller ID & Spam’ which allows you enable this feature for when unknown numbers call by stopping them cold before they ring at full volume! For Apple users out there who want similar protection but with more control over how it works – good news: just turn ON “Silence Unknown Callers” within Phone App settings menu where we’ll show both features available under the same option. This way you get spam filtering and still take calls from people in your Phone Contacts list, but stop wasting time with the garbage out there!
Do Not Call Registry
Listing your phone number with the Do Not Call Registry is a great way to keep spam calls and texts at bay. All you need to do it follow these simple steps: go on their website, select “Register Your Phone” from under My Number in blue letters near top right corner of screen; make sure that both cell tower location (GPS) as well as home address information are correct before clicking Register Now! Reporting unsolicited messages after 31 days ensures compliance across all platforms while also shielding yourself against any unwanted marketing campaigns!
