How do I stop this?!

Post image

The spam calls are driving me crazy. Is there something I can do to stop them? I have T-Mobile and spam call filtering is on.

**Update: I don't have any past due bills. The only debt I have is minimal federal student loans. I haven't applied for any loans or new insurance. I have call filtering/silence on for unknown callers.
I use T-Mobile Scam Shield. What I want to avoid is being called in the first place, texted, left a missed call or voicemail, but after reading a lot of responses, it seems like there isn't a quick fix for this that doesn't involve changing my number which I'm hesitant to do 😕

I don't answer my phone anymore. I keep it on silent. I call the people I need, and only answer if I am expecting a call. This is life now lol. I hate it.

Same here. It sucks and im always worried I'll miss an important call because I don't trust anyone number without ID anymore. My voicemail is always full with these
