213-503-8127 "WIRELESS CALLER"
Received a robocall this afternoon from this number promising a free cruse if answer survey.

By the way, your blocking service is wonderful! We hardly get calls like this anymore.

They have called 5+ times today alone!

I am getting spam every day but there is no number. My caller ID always says "unavailable," and when I look at the call log on sonic's website it says "restricted." I am called at least twice and sometimes three times a day. The first call is almost always at 9 am. Is there any way to find out who is doing this? I don't answer the phone. In the past I did try answering the phone and I think it is the credit interest people wanting me to "lower my rates." When I told them I wanted them to stop calling me they either hung up or told me they would take me off the list. I can't be sure it is the same folks but I don't want to answer the phone. It is really annoying. Is there anything I can do?
Thanks,
Vida

Sounds like you should use the option to block anonymous calls. It is an option for the FTTN VOIP phone service, hope it is also available for the regular POTS lines.

The path to the option for the VOIP setup (don't know if it is the same for POTS):

Voice / Click phone number / Call Manager / Advanced settings

"Anonymous Callers - Calls from anonymous callers will be rejected without going to voicemail"

[virtualmike]

For regular Fusion service, one logs into Member Tools and chooses "Voice."

Pick the affected phone number from the list, and then the link for settings for the number.

Anonymous Call Rejection is one of the options.

Does Anonymous Call Rejection just block "Private" calls, or does it also get rid of "Unknown" calls?

From a user via a tech ticket:

323-325-9112. Quick search looks like it's been reported elsewhere as a SPAM number.

Does Anonymous Call Rejection just block "Private" calls, or does it also get rid of "Unknown" calls?

All it is doing is looking at the call Id phone number provided, and rejecting the ones that don't provide it.
But note it isn't only the telemarkers that might not provide/block this information. You could have a friend or family member that is concerned about letting others know their number, and they may block the information. For instance if you don't block it, and you call XXX store, they can see your telephone number.

In the last couple of days I have got a strange one.
351919533753
Note that is not a typo. It is 12 digits suggesting it is international from Portugal. I hardly doubt that.
They have called several times, even back to back calls, and have left no real message, but one time they said one word and then hung up.
