My do older people even answer spam/scam phone calls?

I witnessed a customer yelling on her phone at a spam call.

Why do you even answer numbers you don’t know? I personally have my phone set up that unknown numbers get silenced.

I noticed my older family members answer them too… it’s weird. Just ignore them.

In this era, there are so many calls from unknown numbers, and it's difficult to recognize numbers you want to hear from.

It's called habit. If I don't recognize a number, and it calls me five times, I call back to see if it's something I need to know.

@Mamapolo2016 I guess it’s because people can text now and a generational thing. They can always text you their new number before? That would make things easier, so you can have it saved.
