How to stop continuous scam calls?

Some how my phone number end up in a scammer/telemarketing call list. I'm very private with my information so have not idea how this happened. For the past 6 months I have been receiving about 10 calls a day from random numbers. I never answer, some of them leave a message. Sometimes the caller ID said "scam likely". I have an IPhone with T-Mobile. I keep blocking the calls but seems to never stop. What else can I do to stop this calls?

Change your number

Change your number.

Start by looking on the t mobile website for answers and if needed contact them

The easiest option would be to change your number I'm afraid:/

Set your answering machine message as the sound of a modem connecting for a few days.
The robots calling (computer) will drop the calsl when connecting to another machine and blacklist them.

  • Why do I receive text messages and missed calls on my old Iphone. How do I stop this? When someone calls me on my new phone, it shows up as "missed call from ___".It doesn't ring on my on my old phone, but after I answer the call on my new phone, it says missed call on the old phone, if that makes sense. I receive text messages from people on my old iphone as well. I use it as my iPod because it could drain the life out of my new phone, so I don't necessarily want to reset the entire phone. I have cellular data off and I'm with Verizon.

  • Iphone/ipod continuous play? It's annoying how the music player stops at the end of the last song on an album or if I have one song for an artist it will not go to the next one automatically. Is there any way to get it to go to the next album or artist after it finishes with the last song?
