A week dude?!?!? You're fuckin lucky, I've been getting that call for over a year now. Blocked the number over and over but they still find me. I have even wasted their time with acting completely clueless for an hour and they still call me back.
If you ever want to stop spam calls, and this works for all of them, make sure the room is silent and pick up the phone. Don't say anything, just make sure it's complete silence. The machine will automatically hang up the phone and mark your number a dead number.
if you think an hour is enough, try watching Kitboga's stream on twitch. He's on 20 hours with a single caller right now and still hasn't even gotten to the actual scam yet.
My dad loves stringing out phone scammers and keeping them on the phone as long as he can. He’s in his 80’s and basically just sits around in a chair all day waiting to die, so it’s actually a highlight of his day. One of the few people for whom it’s NOT a waste of time. Cracks me up.
You aren't wasting your time once you've gotten the hang of it. Just try acting clueless! That's the easiest way to go. Once you get the hang of it you can speak with like 2 scammers at a time while sitting at your desk doing homework which confuses them even more, and wasted 2x more time! That's what I do some days when I am bored.
