    Because 9 times out of 10 it’s a spam call and picking up marks your number as active so it gets called more often. It makes looking for a job so much worse because I have to answer almost every call. Most are spam calls but I can’t afford to miss an employer calling.

      I haven’t had that experience with spam/scam calls. Mind you, I’m in Canada and the do not call list has teeth here, though that only applies to spam. But spam/scam call frequency doesn’t appear to be correlated at all with how recently I’ve answered another call.
