A few months ago I got a robocall attempt on my cell phone from my own 'spoofed' cell phone number. I didn't answer and blocked my number since I couldn't think of any reason I'd need to reach myself. Too bad I didn't encourage the DW to do the same with her number.
Last night she got two calls from her number, one shortly after midnight and a second around 2:30 AM. Her phone is set to initiate Do Not Disturb mode between 10 PM and 6 AM, blocking all calls from anyone not on her contacts list, but her own number is considered to be a contact, thus the calls came through (she didn't answer).
I'd recommend those of you with cell phones preemptively block your own number now and avoid the possibility of a rude awakening - or two.
