I have an interesting streak going: The last SIX calls on my cell phone (going back to last Wednesday, 5 days ago) have all been those neighbor spoofing ones. All began with my area code and first 3 digits. I have no such number in my very limited contacts list (only about 20 people have my cell phone number). In the last 2 years, I have gotten calls from 50-60 different neighbor spoofing numbers.
I don't answer the cell phone if no name from my contacts list appears in the called-ID display, or if I don't recognize the number anyway (a very RARE event). I have a limited, pay-per-minute cell phone plan so I don't want to burn minutes listening to those worthless robocall pitches. I simply lift the receiver a half inch and close it, instantly ending the call.
