Blocking area code calls on iPhone

I moved to Florida two years ago and I receive at least twenty spam calls a day from my NJ phone area code. Can I block this area code?

Stopping robo spam calls I am using iPhone 10 or 12 (see photo.)I keep getting robo spam calls. Sometimes 20 a day. I have to manually block and delete calls; but other numbers are then generated; many with my same area code. i have the setting turned on that the call is identified as spam and doesn’t ring. But each one I have to go through the block and delete process. my number is registered on the National no call directory. 1) how can I stop getting these calls; not just block 2) how did this happen? thank you in advance for your help!!!!

Blocking Multiple Phone Numbers on Iphone Like many I have been receiving spam/scam calls from a range of numbers, usually with the number format +61 3 1234 ####, with the #### changing every call. I came across a third party app that solves the problem and lets you block multiple numbers using # as a wild card number. The app can block countries and you can set 4, 5 or 6 wildcards. The app is called Number Shield on the App Store and cost me A$4. I currently have 9 sets of "1234 ###" blocked which is 90,000 numbers and only now have to occasionally add a new set of 10,000. numbers. BTW-I have no financial interest whatsoever in the app.

That would be a question for your carrier......not Apple.
