I assign specific ring tones to people who actually call me, such as family, friends, the dentist, my mechanic, etc. Then when I hear the generic ring tone, I know I can just ignore the phone. I let the call go to voicemail, and most of the time, there is no voice mail.

Nope, intersex people are actually common, just as common as red heads, around 1.7% . Do you think those with blue eyes also have an abnormal condition since it was a mutation?
Again, don't care for your intersexism. And once again, I am asking, which of the several categories of sex are we referring to? Chromosomal, gonadal, morphological, endocrinologic? Intersex people's sex changes drastically depending on that category you're using.

Never heard of any of that. I've only met the 2 kinds of sexes in my 40+ years of life on earth

Many seniors--people in their seventies and eighties--just think they have to answer every call. So they do. Seniors are favorite targets of scammers, because they are law abiding, polite, and sometimes easily confused. The scammers hope they can find someone with borderline dementia.
The more calls you answer, the more they will continue to call.

Might be moving to Gorham soon so this is good to know. I don't imagine there's much dentist competition up there but good to know all the same.

But all these variations are abnormal conditions. It should be pretty obvious that when referring to biological sex, it’s referring to male/female.

Turner syndrome is just one of over 40 different variations. They are natural variations in sexual development, don't care for your intersexism. Still doesn't answer as to which of the biological sex categories intersex folk would fall into

Aren’t you talking about turner syndrome type stuff? Those are genetic errors in the developmental stage. These aren’t normal conditions. I don’t really understand what the point of all this is.

They're taking patients? Every time I call them they say they can't.

But the calls come from distant parties pretending to be from those numbers. (Often local)

Considering the fact there's a minimum of 6 different chromosomal sexes (not including all the variations of intersex, just a few), there's also endocrinologic sex, gonadal sex, and morphological sex. What is it basing it on, just one, or all? They're all biological, so which one?

You can't figure out what they mean by biologically male and female?

There is a neat feature on the iphone to silence calls from numbers that are not on your contact list. I do this. Not the best solutions, like if you are looking for a job and waiting on a call, or a doctors office where they dont call back on the main line, if it is important, they will leave a voice mail.
​
95% of my silenced calls dont leave a message, I assume they are spam "car warranty" or "I want to buy your house!" type crap.
​
Do not "decline" the call on your phone or watch. I believe this hangs up on the call, which in turn signals back to the caller that it is a valid number. They use auto-dialers that just call 603-555-1111, 603-555-1112, 603-555-1113 etc until someone answers, then the call is routed to a phone rep who reads the script (or a recording is played). If it is a valid number, they will keep calling.
​
(I started using the silence unknown numbers feature during the election when my phone was blowing up)

Fucking preach. These mouth breathers don’t give two shits and/or don’t know two shits about the real dangers or challenges that women face. They like to regurgitate dumb shit they hear from tucker Carlson.

Get an air horn, then answer them.... I've also found queuing a particularly loud, and screamy clip from a B horror movie helps decrease these calls.
Edit: I have the track "Friday The 13th" by Figure saved, and set to the point where it goes "Jason Voorhees is dead..." and a very abrasive "drop" at a moments notice, I answer spam calls, and often play this.
My spam calls have decreased.

What is wrong with the term "biological sex"?

Republicans would be the perfect sponsor of such a thing. It could be some self-help therapy

Not recently, they don't like me anymore though. Last time, I was able to gather enough information to send a demand letter, and we settled for quite a bit of cash. Now I welcome them! Can't do anything about overseas scammers though.

Lol nice job with the terf rhetoric. There’s no such thing as “biological man” man is a descriptor for adult male, which begs the question; at what point does someone become a man? The day they turn 18, or based on development, and at what point then? If based on the day they turn 18, then that’s not very biological as bodies develop at different rates, it would be social. Man is a social category and cannot be biological. Either way, I highly doubt you give a fuck what cis women want, you just want to be transphobic.

Verizon let's you mark unknown numbers as "spam." Also, I sent a list of the calls (numbers, dates and times) to the AG.

Right. AG compiles and works with FTC.
FTC already has notified VOIP companies that providing those types of services can lead to criminal charges. https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/news/press-releases/2020/01/ftc-warns-19-voip-service-providers-assisting-facilitating-illegal-telemarketing-or-robocalling
