    They spoof numbers now... Sometimes it's been our name and number

    I get that a lot...and I automatically block them.

    We don't have a setup for blocking number automatically.... except for
    totally anonymous calls.... I have the phone company block those (and legitimate calls are told how to get past that, by unblocking their
    number and/or name).... did it after getting an anonymous call in the
    early hours of the morning, answering it and getting the squeals of a
    fax machine in my ear.... couldn't even call the number back and
    complain, so decided to block that from happening again....
