If you are getting junk phone calls, you need to understand that the number that you see that looks like it is calling is not really the actual number that is calling.


Junk callers use software to disguise the actual number that is calling. You don't know what the number really is.


You can block the number that you see on your phone, but the calls will continue to come in because you did not block the actual number that was calling.
