I stopped unwanted calls

Maureen from Marewa

I was having 3 or more calls a day from the likes of 'Spark' (supposedly) and other rip off callers. I stopped these by simply not speaking when I answer a call, The fraudulent callers will hang up within 5 seconds (usually), they think they've called a disconnected number. If it's someone you know they will say 'hello'. I have not had any calls for over 3 weeks. Please try it, it won't do any harm and will stop the calls.

ps Pay to tell your family if you do it
