My 80-something yo FIL with onsets of dementia has had several instances of almost giving away all his info to scammers. My wife is looking for an app/service that we can setup to further screen calls beyond what ATT/iPhone do automatically.
Little background info..... showing signs of dementia but not bad enough to prevent him from living alone. Has been a realtor for 40+ years and still "works" to keep him busy despite the fact that he hasn't actually sold a house in years. Because of his background as a realtor he has a habit of answering ALL calls whether he knows the number or not. Think this habit has led to a huge uptick in spam calls. He understands there are scammers and F's with some of them for fun but a few have fooled him into almost giving away his info.
Wife wants to avoid disrupting his day to day and feels that the easiest path would be something to screen/filter his calls. Is there an iPhone app/setting that will immediately send calls from any number not in your address book directly to VM?
