How to block calls from 917 871 193 and other spam numbers

There are several ways to block a phone number. The simplest is to resort to the native options of iOS and Android, which we can access from the call history. Once inside, we will press and hold the number we want to block until a context menu appears with the aforementioned option. Another option is to install specialized applications, such as True Caller for Android or Mr. Number for iOS.

The advantage of these applications is that they have a database with thousands of records. If the number matches any of the application's records, the call will be blocked automatically. The way to proceed with a landline phone is similar to the one we have just detailed. In case our phone lacks blocking functions, we can always use external blockers. Its price on Amazon is around 25 euros.
