Used to get this. Even calls on WhatsApp. Kept blocking all of them.

Recently I am getting unknown calls from the USA. This is happening very frequently currently. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Is anyone else getting these random calls saying your parcel has been returned from some place like Taiwan or Singapore? 

It's a very well orchestrated scam where the robo call puts you through an agent who then gaslights you into thinking you've sent some sensitive item and that they need your PAN to get it delivered.

Anyone here think that the number of random sales calls have increased in the last few months ? Lately I’m being bombarded with random unsolicited calls mostly with pre-recorded messages.

Anyone know any solutions to stop receiving these calls - DnD doesn’t seem to be working

Post inspired from another post. What is your method to deal with spam calls? 

What I have tried and it worked well for me:
 Get Android phone. 
 Get Truecaller. 
 Block all calls not in the phone book. 
 Do this for a month. All callers will find your number unresponsive and remove you from calling lists.  
  
 If you are expecting unknown calls like Swiggy/Zomato/Amazon, unblock momentarily till the delivery. 

Your number has been public. Your telecom sells it, bank sells it, Universities sell it, discoms sells it. Your number is sold as soon as you buy a new SIM from a telecom. If there's a buyer, even you wud sell your number for a good price. Weird world. 

Even TRAI is useless and doesn't execute fines plus the onus is on you to complain and report via a stupid needless form for every spam. 

In India, Truecaller is a 99% good solution.I  know some friends in sales & call centers who mentioned they don't wanna waste effort & time with non-converting leads. So they update their calling lists & non-responsive numbers are filtered out. So every 6mo, I block all unknown numbers and monitor my spams. Worked well.

Has anybody also observed that the number of spam calls for credit card, pre approved loans increased exponentially?

I wanted to figure out the root cause of this.

I remember one of my friends asking me to download ONE Score app to check my credit score, around 5-6 months ago and since then, on an average there are 4-5 calls daily. Not saying this definitely was the root cause but just a speculation.

Just wanted to know what others feel regarding this and any steps they took to mitigate this.

Credit card spam calls

I have been using the same phone number for more than 15 years and I’m getting a minimum of 7-8 calls everyday from
financial services, charity, insurance etc. I’ve never made any loan inquiries. Also enabled DND from the day I remember. However, this keeps me bothering. Any hacks to get rid of these spammers? 

I have more than 800 numbers in my block list…. But still…

Hey folks, 
As you also may be quite irritated by all the spam calls you receive, what steps have you taken to free yourself from this abuse? 

I have a Pixel phone, it does a good enough job of screening these calls, however at a daily rate I receive 10 spam calls.
