It may well be that the person who had this telephone number before your child got it received many spam calls.


Two possible courses of action come to mind:

  1. Consider changing Settings > Apps > Phone > Silence Unknown Callers to “on” on your child’s iPhone.
  2. Consider asking your cellular carrier to provide a different telephone number for your child.
