How do I block a caller

I have someone calling up to 5 times a day.  I tried to call them back and it said their number was disconnected.  How do I block them from calling again?

Hi, if the number is displayed you can use Selective Call Rejection and add that number to a list of numbers that you do not want to receive calls from: http://bit.ly/1v1MU2j  If the calls are from telemarketers, you can add your phone number to the Do No Call List: http://1.usa.gov/1t9oeZf  I hope this information is helpful.

You can block a number, but you can't block a caller.  It's spoofing.

the DNC list is a joke.  It keeps honest people honest.  It doesn't stop "Microsoft Support" from calling trying to get me to let them remote into my computer.  It also doesn't stop "Jennifer" from lowering my interest rates :). Scammers just see fines for violating the DNC as a cost of doing business ... That is if they get caught.
