Spam phone calls!

"Answer", hit "###" in rapid succession--"hang up". It knocks them off the internet (or DID). It takes about 20min to re-establish connection. TIME is "their" money.

I got this tip from Mike Rowe on GG. I don't know how long this will last or if it works with idiot rectangles. It DOES reduce landline BS almost 100%. You (as of now) may have to ZAP a few times every couple months.

That is all.

The idea that answering a scam call and immediately pressing "###" or "#9#" to "knock them off the internet" or terminate their service is a myth and will not stop scam callers. [1]
Key Facts Regarding This Claim:

• No Technical Effect: Pressing pound (#) multiple times does not technically disconnect a scammer's Voice over IP (VoIP) service or internet connection.
• Dangerous Interaction: Engaging with scammers by answering, speaking, or hitting buttons confirms your number is active, which can lead to increased scam calls.
• Best Action: The most effective defense is to simply hang up immediately without speaking or pressing any keys.
