I find that keeping my landline on Message stops the spam callers as they just hang up. But this morning I got a first.... a long recorded message. it is obviously set to start as soon as they get the answer machine. , It went on forever and was to the tune of being the taxation dept who were about to send a copper around to arrest me for tax evasion unless I phoned back the number they gave. It was very convincing and for a moment I thought, what have I done lol. They are thinking of everything.

Thanks for the link twyn. Yes that's exactly the automated call I got. My point really was that no longer does the answer machine stop these scammers now they are using an automated call. It didn't fool me for one moment , just saved them from getting an expletive and the phone slammed down.
