To prevent spam calls on an iPhone, you can silence unknown numbers. This means that withheld numbers and numbers which aren't in your contacts (apart from numbers that you've tried to call recently) will all go straight to voicemail. These blocked calls will still be shown on your recent calls list. To silence unknown numbers on an iPhone:

  1. Go to your Settings app

  2. Tap on Phone

  3. Go to Silence Unknown Callers

  4. Toggle Silence Unknown Callers to be on
