I like finding "portable" solutions -- things that others can apply
instead of just solving a problem for myself. E.g., the answering
machine with ringer off approach works very good for us.

I'm getting 2-3 calls a day from "TOLL FREE CALL" (caller ID name) with
varying numbers. Most of these leave a "blank" message on my answering
machine I have do deal with). The "message" is often just a breathing
noise or something obviously verbal with no identifiable words.

This answering machine beeps every 15 seconds when it has a new message.
That USED to be a useful feature.

Got a TOLL FREE CALL today. Turned out to be Ben Carson's campaign.
Usually it is a Google Scammer.
