is there a way to block calls that Rogers labels "Likely Spam" on home phone?

I've been around

So I see with the home phone manager you can block certain numbers and private numbers but i see no option to block the calls that Rogers labels Likely Spam, Fraud, Scam. It would be nice to block these. Is there a way or not?

Thanks.

Not that I'm aware of.  Some specialized call blocking devices may have an option to block certain characters or even portions of numbers, but I haven't researched those in quite a while.

 

I have a Panasonic cordless phone system and have a distinctive ring associated with those in my contacts list. If I don't hear that specific ring, then I don't go to the phone.

 

If I get called by the same spam/scam number more than once, I'll block that number, but most auto-dialers now change their spoofed numbers, so that isn't as valuable as it once was.
