How did you get your spam calls down to only a few a day?

I got my name and details blacklisted by scam baiting, back before that was even a thing. I was used to just playing along with spam calls on the landline for my parents. Once cell phones and mass spam calls hit I had a lot of fun for a while, but at some point I was full blown blacklisted. In the last ~10 years I've only gotten the occasional car warranty call from someone who bought wrong data(cars I don't own).

I've had the same number for over twenty years. My guess would be all that time yielding no results from those calls. Otherwise I guess I'm just lucky. I almost never have my ringer or vibrate on so I never even see them as they come in.
