Receiving calls from unrecognized numbers

I keep getting calls from numbers I don’t recognize; I keep signaling them and new numbers call for winning stuff

Don't know what you mean by "signaling" them?


It is not clear what iOS version you are using, but with either iOS 26 or 27, I would recommend turning on Call Screening with the Ask Reason for Call option. This weeds out most every Spam call you would receive, while still allowing an important call from an unknown number that is willing to provide their name and reason for the call.
