The problem with that is that about 75% of the calls I get have the number
spoofed. A guy in Bangalore is not calling me from a number in my area
code. If I block it, I'll be blocking someone who may be legit, and not
the spam caller.
I love getting these calls for extending my auto warranty. I make them do
the spiel and then tell them I have a 1975 Triumph...
"Oh. Do you have another vehicle?"
"Yep. A 1976 Triumph."
