Put yourself on the Do Not Call list. It works almost as good as other government programs. Well not even almost.

1. Recycle any paper products.

2. Get a good spam blocking tool.

3. Get a call blocker app for your smart phone - I have Call Control for Android. For any other phone make sure to check Caller ID and don’t answer anything that you don’t recognize. If it’s important, they will leave a voice mail.
