A couple of months ago I blocked a number. A week ago the same number started calling again. I blocked it on the iPhone 12 Pro Max and yet they still was calling. I even downloaded the call protect app added the number to that and yet their still calling threw. Help
iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14
It is probably not the actual number they are calling from. That is call spoofing, and the spammers are using that more lately and are switching all the time. You do have the option to turn on Silence Unknown Callers, however that will also block anyone that is not in your Contacts.

Blocking This Out:
Use a Third-Party app called Malwarebytes Mobile Security. It is developed by long time users of these forums, making it fully-trustworthy for Apple devices.

I suspect that it has to do with the Caller ID spoofing as I indicated in my earlier response.
The phone still rings like it’s not blocked, but it is.
Its happening to me too. I even have silence unknown callers turned on but the calls are still coming through.
