Speaking of spammers, the Panasonic models have a memory for spam
numbers. When you get a call, (you need caller ID) and you determine
it's a spammer, you then put the numbers in the spam memory. Future
calls from that number are then blocked.
I have one of those, and the number blocking does help reduce calls (and
if I couldn't have caller ID, I'd have to never answer the phone).
For awhile I could really have used blocking by NAME. When every day
there were a dozen of more junk calls from different numbers, but all
with the name of "TOLL FREE CALL". Now it's "Out Of Area" (an obvious
lie, since a number IS provided).
