If a home phone with caller ID, you don't need to pick up to know. Most
of these junk calls are obvious when you look at the name on the
display. Often a city and state like "CENTER TX". Those are almost all
junk calls. There's also TOLL FREE CALL.


Most, but not all. In the past two days one listed the local hospital,
another was a garage door service company, a couple were names of people.

Too easy to spoof a name.
