Answer 2

Because mobile networks re-use old mobile numbers as there aren't enough to go around

First step:

If you get spam texts, your nobile network will have a number you can forward spam messages to for investigation.

TPS will eradicate I would say about 98% of unwanted calls but there are loop holes - not a perfect solution but better than nothing

Answer 3

Is it from the same phone numbers?

Verizon Wireless released the Usage Controls which actually allows you to block certain numbers from calling you. It is a great feature only from Verizon Wireless. Check with your carrier to see if they have something similar coming out soon. Verizon is the only one to have it right now.

Also, I recommend going to http://mobileroar.com/forum and see what they say! It is the best place for mobile and gives people a large variety of things to discuss. It is more extensive than Yahoo! Answers. Become a member free. http://mobileroar.com/forum/register.php

Answer 5

Just dont answer any unknown numbers you should be fine. Thats what I do and the phone calls seem to stop. plus dont give out your cell phone number on the internet. As you know companies cell these numbers
