Your cell phone carrier is legally obligated to give you another number if you are being harassed, which this is definitely beyond any doubt harassment. Call them and be sure to use the words “I am being called constantly and harassed at my new number at all hours of the day. I am requesting a new phone number for free.” They will absolutely give you a new number based on that, free of charge.

This kind of spam is luckily pretty rare in europe, I get maybe one or two spam calls a year.

Just answer every phone call with “Hello, this is ham.” And then onwards, every single sentence you say…is about ham. But also completely unhelpful to the conversation.

“Well, Hello Mr Ham. I’m just calling today to let you know about this great oppertunity from our next presidident, Donald Trump.”

“Ham is sometimes salty”

“Uhhhh…Well, Mr Trump is seeking donations from real american patriots like yourself”

“Give me ham.”

“Ham?”

“HAM!!!”

“I don’t understand, are you saying Ham, like the food?”

“ALL THE HAM IN MY MOUTH!!!”

“Ok…we can get you some ham. We just need a donation of $50.00 today.”

“Ham runs all my descisions.”

“I…don’t understand.”

“Yes, this is ham. Can I cheese you? Right in the ham?”

“Are you ok?”

“Ham.”

This should preferably go on for 10 hours.

Answer every call (without any words!) just the sound of dial-up tones. This will probably get you marked as bot and they will stop, it worked for me. But I also only had a few

Check your cell service provider to see if they offer any spam blocking services. T-mobile has an app you can install that will block some of these calls for free.

Honestly. I’ve saved every number I call, like “Doctor Clinic” and all that, and I only respond to calls from unknown numbers if I’m expecting a call.

When I was getting a new line for some relatives, I found that when going through the web checkout process you could select your phone number out of 5 choices before completing the purchase. I thought that was pretty bad design as it shows which numbers are most likely going to be new. It would be pretty easy to scrape that page and create a spam list.

Sure enough, it didn’t take long for the new number to start receiving spam.

This happened to me when I received a cell for work. I ended up fully silencing the phone and giving important co-workers my personal number instead. The spam calls have only recently started to slow down… I’ve had the number for 10 years.

If it’s only been five days just call your carrier and ask for a new number.

It’s not a big deal, it happens. You don’t need any “magic phrases”. Just be honest and tell them what’s going on.

All you’ll need to do after is power your phone off and back on for the number change to register.

Probably election relation. 🤞for you that it calms down

Just get Truecaller bro & set protection level to MAX

There are carrier based services that do fuck all for spam calls, what you really need to get rid of them is Google Assistant call screening. Yes, Google is a giant evil corporation with anti-competitive monopolies and “AI” that will lead to the eventual destruction of the Internet we know and love, but their call screener is top notch. It answers the call and the spammers have to talk to a robot to get through to you. That’s cut down my spam call volume dramatically. And if it flags someone accidentally they just say who they are and I can decide to answer.

This happened with all of our work phones. It died down over time of not answering, but it still happens.

Honestly sticking with a known number is much better than trying to get something new. There’s a reason that number was available, and it’s probably because someone wanted the spam to stop.

Your new phone number is someone elses discarded phone number.

Carriers need more number combinations to create phone numbers and every time a new plan is activate it generates a random number that was never used by anyone
