Like a relentless door‑to‑door salesman on autopilot, these prize‑claim calls flood phones day after day. Even if you’re on the official Do‑Not‑Call registry, some telemarketers sidestep the rules by rotating numbers and using scripted offers. Protect your data by never confirming personal details over the phone, and immediately add each new number to your phone’s block list or a third‑party call‑blocking app. Report persistent offenders to the FTC’s complaint portal and consider a call‑filtering service for extra privacy safeguards. Remember, the safest response is to hang up and avoid engagement in future.
