very rarely do I answer a call if I don't recognize the number ... I figure if they know me and it is important they will leave a message or text me.

I like you do not answer my phone when i do not recognize the number.. If the person leaves a message I will call them back if it pertains to something important.. If not then they do not recieve a callback and the number get's added to my block list to reduce the spam calls. However... Once blocked being as a have a prepaid cellphone company.. they can still leave a voice message..

Am I the only one who sometimes doesn't answer the phone when it is a number that I DO recognize?

If you don't know it don't answer I got calls from Ohio and other places and I don't even know people there.

So tried of all these calls and just got something from AT & T today that says you can dial *61 immediately after the call to block the number

I don't answer calls from numbers I do not recognize. I Google the number to find out who it was though.

Most of the time if you call one of these numbers back you get a recording

Lately my husband has gotten phone calls from solicitors where the area code of the phone number shows as our local area code.  Since we don't have everyone's cell phone, he has answered several.

If they phone rings and I do not know the number I do not answer it.  Then I google reverse phone look up.  Mostly they are scam,.  Hope everyone has a good day and may God bless each of you and keep you safe. :)

It wasn't ME who called you, but now you can say that you know someone from Ohio!   ;D

I do not answer calls I don't recognize either.   So no I do not.

All unknown numbers can go to voicemail. If they really want ME, then they can leave a message.

If I see the same number calling repeatedly, I will answer and say, "Take me off your list," and they do.  :icon_rr:

I never answer numbers I do not recognize either! Sometimes I will also google the number.
