Does wonders. Email too.

I think everyone does the throwaway email tactic, but that’s free. 

My home phone (yes, I still have one) is my nuisance number now. It rings twice and goes to voicemail.

It worked “okay” for me but I’m not sure what caused the spree of calls yesterday.  If I had to guess,  it’s like when you get a traffic ticket then a week or so later your mailbox is full of driving schools.  I think when the cpa filed what he did, the IRS must be selling the info.  I’ve received some calls and a bunch of crap in the mail.  

My mom has her phone set up so only her contacts come through and the rest straight to VM.  Now THATS the way to go!
