Criminals frequently use phone scams to defraud people for their money. Find out how a call blocker can help stop spam calls.
Because they answer calls with a familiar area code, many people become victims of phone scams. While most people find it simple to avoid a toll-free number, seeing a nearby area code may make you think twice before hanging up. It should therefore be no surprise that con artists use well-known area codes to target their victims.
It is advisable to get a call blocker to stop spam calls, especially for landlines. Below is a client's review of how effective a call blocker is.
Perfect Call Blocker to Stop Spam Calls
"Perfect & permanent relief from harassment(.)"
"We were at our wits end with constant harassing calls from East Europeans trying to scam us with Bitcoin deals. We tried hanging up as soon as the calls came in(,) but that did not deter them(,) and the call intensity became worse.
Our phone provider could not offer any practical help(,) but two words from their website sparked an idea. I carried out a "call blocker" search on Google and up came a selection of devices. One of these was the CPR V5000 which, although a bit more expensive than some others, had some reasonably good reviews.
As we had to do something, I took the plunge and ordered one. It arrived within 24 hours of being ordered. Installation involved connecting two plug-ins and took less than 30 seconds. Having got a record of the 8 separate phone numbers that were being used to harass us, I immediately loaded these into the device(,) and hey presto(,) not one more unwanted call.
Even better(,) the device allows you to see how many times the blocked call numbers have tried (and failed) to get through - in our case(,) the total now exceeds 25. This makes us smile with real delight as we imagine the frustration and anger that the caller is no doubt experiencing - a case of reverse harassing??!!
To anyone with the same experience, this is a no-brainer purchase. Even better(,) the device will also help us to defeat those other unwanted sales calls e.g. home insulation bandits and claims lawyers(,) etc. A Brilliant product and worth every penny."
