One ring and hangup.

Spam caller; I reported to complaints.doNotCall.gov.

It AUTOMATICALLY-DOES-NOT-RING:  On my cell phone, I've installed "Call Blocker Free - Blacklist" by NQ Mobile Security for Android phones.  It is useful for non-business phones to only accept calls from phone numbers I want, incoming unwanted calls automatically do not ring  (rings on the spam caller end of the call, but not the recipient end and shows in the app instead of the phone call log).  I go to the app>Main screen>Funnel icon>Blocking mode> change it to:  "Accept ONLY FROM WHITELIST and CONTACTS".  Add the phone numbers you wish to receive calls from to your Contacts (keep your Contacts up-to-date as normal) and/or add non-contacts that you wish to receive a call from to the app Whitelist.  With my phone carrier service, I also turn voicemail OFF  so that it doesn't pickup a spam call after its set time to record.

UPDATE:  I'm liking "Call Blocker" by embware for Android phones  better for the same and additional capabilities.  It has the added ability to add a blocked non-spam number chosen from the blocked call log to the unblock-whitelist, with a name so I know the name associated with the phone number. And, it has the added ability to allow one-click-calling a whitelisted-allowed number.  If you want to download it from google play, it has a 'B' on a padlock icon. I change the call setting from "block private number" (hidden callerID) to allow "phonebook only" (only allow incoming calls from Contacts and Whitelist). It only works for Android version 4 or less.  The latest embware version changed to a 10-second delay to open (demo) but seemingly fully-working version.

Hello,

Thank you for reporting these unwanted calls and bringing them to our attention. We at Spok (formerly known as USA Mobility) wanted to respond and let you know that we are not affiliated with this practice, and these calls constitute an illegal activity known as spoofing. Whoever is responsible for these telemarketing calls has misrepresented Spok as the ID associated with this phone number, which belongs to another wireless provider, and not a number associated with Spok in any way.

Furthermore, Spok wants to assure you that our company, which provides critical communication solutions to hospitals and health systems, emergency responders, and other corporate customers does not use telemarketers in any capacity targeting individual consumers nor do we encourage any individual or company to perform telemarketing services on our behalf.

Spok routinely reports such unlawful incidents of spoofing to the telephone companies that serve individuals like yourself who receive improper telemarketing calls, and we encourage you to also contact your local provider directly with your concern. Additionally you may also want to report this spoofing incident to the Federal Communications Commission as Spok is working in collaboration with federal officials to address these unlawful spoofing incidents to enlist the backing of the full enforcement authority of the FCC to deter this practice.

All of us at Spok understand the inconvenience these calls may provide and want to reassure you that Spok takes your unfortunate experience very seriously and has and will continue to undertake efforts to try to prevent this activity from reoccurring in the future.

Thank you again for bringing this matter to our attention.

Sincerely,

Spok Customer Support Team

Just put them on auto reject.

Missed their call and they did not leave message. When I called back it answered with an automated message stating they were a reward redemption business that have $100 in rebates for me. SCAM!

The call was so short my phone didn't ring. the missed call message came up instead.

One ring and hangup.

called yesterday - i answered and asked her not to call again - called again about 1/2 hour later from a
different number -

Same here Sat. 8/13/16.

Forget the antiquated "Do Not Call List."  Robo-calling can't be prosecuted.  Either file the number in Auto Reject (if available) or simply don't answer.  Nothing frustrates unsavory telemarketers like No Answer.

C'mon, how do you REALLY feel?

Rang once then immediate hang up

Got a one ring call didn't bother calling back. Gonna take some advice fromy a previous post and install a do-not-call app. and use a white list caller only function.

2 rings hung up

There SHOULD be a way to send a signal from my phone to THEIRS that would FRY the 'insides' of THEIR phone !!!!
Then THEY would HAVE to stop robo calling!!

2 rings hang up... annoying jerks

Same thing - one ring and hang up right after. I didn't call back - looks like a scam. The number is going to be blocked.
