Last week dozens of users denounced in various forums and social networks the reception of calls through 933 936 057. The problem is that the majority of affected people have crossed out this number as an alleged attempt at a telephone scam.

If we have received the call on a landline, the only option we can resort to is based on using call blockers for landlines. In Amazon we can find models that range from 25 euros:
The good thing is that they have a database with a list of phone numbers that automatically filters spam calls.
