Maybe Verizon is better than some at stopping those calls, I don't get many of 
them any more. Or, maybe it is that I simply don't answer the call if I don't 
recognize the number or it says the contact name, unless I am expecting a call 
whose number I may not recognize.   I figured that the telemarketing systems 
would catch onto the fact that I never answered their calls and would delete my 
number after a while. If it is a legitimate call, let them leave a voice mail 
and I will call back.

Hi Larry,
This might not be what you want to hear, but I am also a T-Mobile user, and 
never found Scam Shield all that great. So what I do is the nuclear approach, 
which means I have set the setting in my iPhone so that the only calls that 
ring through are those in my contacts. I get notifications if there’s a 
voicemail, And the bad side of this of course is that if you’re getting a call 
from somebody that’s not in your contacts, you’re going to have to call them 
back. So that’s the downside. The upside is I don’t get spam calls on my phone 
ever. It’s worth it to me.
