I never answer unless I recognize the caller/number. Uh, except today, I got caught. Robot political call. Same area code as my daughter. I didn't look closely and thought it was her.

I do not answer for any such calls.  I only answer the land line if I recognize the voice on the answering machine.  I don't answer the smartphone at all.  I don't like it.  I prefere old fashioned stuff.  I use my computer less and less.  Which reminds me, I need to use my old-fashioned broom on the porch to get rid of piled up bird poop.

Well I had a call Pat it was a local phone number but strangely a foreign accent. Press 1 for an engineer your Internet has been compromised. I never answer unless it is a local Number but even that appears to be suspect now.

I am guessing two or three. That is odd.

Reverse phone directory...

I use it now and then. It tells me if a call is definitely a robo/sales call, or is likely to be, or is not.

Call the number back and tell him..."I'm Here, But no one else has shown up?
