I blocked an overseas caller. But still get the calls. Since sometime back, when that same caller was calling, I see a random number from my same network provider. Everytime it’s a new local number. When I dial that number back it says the number doesn’t exist. What shall I do? I want to block this number. Thanks

What you are experiencing are SCAM calls from overseas. I believe that you already knew this. The issue is that the Scammer spoofs the phone numbers that s/he is using. It imitates the “Call From” number and fools the system. This is why when you call back, you get the number does not exist error.
Unfortunately, from my experience, there is nothing much that you can do except to ignore those calls and not answer. You can continue to block those numbers, however, the scammer will use another local number. The only method that will work is that you change your phone number.

Not exactly, I have answered to these calls and have talked to the correct person whom I need to block. But was always surprised to hear the voice of that person everytime from a new random number while the number was blocked. I can’t ignore all the unknown calling numbers to my phone.
