Do you have repeated calls enabled in the DND settings?

Many spammers use automated equipment that makes multiple simultaneous calls to the same number.

If repeated calls is turned on, you can try turning it off. Some systems can place dozens of simultaneous calls, which can overwhelm even the best of call blocking systems.
