Answer the phone, wait 3 sec. then put it on mute. Now lay it down and ignore it. Never had one that tried more than twice.

Doesn’t matter if their calls are free or not.
When you pick up, you verify to them that the number is active.
This increases the rate of phone calls because they are hoping you’ll pick up and talk to them out of anger. Everything online and from official channels says log the number, report it as spam and report it as a scan and then block it. You can report the numbers but what’s been happening more recently is these robocallers are spoofing numbers that don’t exist on purpose hoping that you’ll answer so there’s no trail to follow when you report the number.
These numbers haven’t slowed down and I have been blocking them for almost a year now.
