I get the logic. If it's some random ass number and you're stranded with no charger, why waste time on what might be a spam call? That and I don't want one of the last things I hear to be someone talking about car insurance

The second time the same number calls back, it becomes a different story.

You haven't met scammers/spam callers local to me. Assholes are persistent.

Weird. Yeah since like 2009 I have almost never seen a spam call come from the same number twice. I'm in the US.

Same. It makes blocking the numbers pointless.

I never get these calls. My secret? I never give my phone number out to anyone except hospitals and other health related professions.

When I gave out my number I got them all the time.

There are local prefixes I will never answer no matter what. I'm looking at you, 243 and 422.

I would've put my phone on power saving mode if I was stranded. It's good for 2 or 3 days. That's without a battery bank or solar panel I would've had in my pack.
