Hi all, I have reached the capabilities of my Panasonic cordless phones for
blocking spam. (250). I have Verizon landline (not FIOS) so Nomorobo will not

Buy new cordless phones with greater capacity?

If so recommend a brand: Panasonic - V-tech - ?

Buy a separate call blocker? e.g. CPR V5000

Start over. Chances are most of the numbers you blocked were forged
anyway and are not being used any more. I got three calls today that
were spoofed. In once case, it is a number I may need in the future.

Block all you want but the callers have many tools and use millions of
numbers.


I have done that, at least five times. Most of the spoofed numbers appear
local. Until the gov't forces the network providers to block them we are SOL.

The only reason I am interested is the wife asks who called? Endlessly.
