I don't answer blocked numbers and usually don't answer unknown numbers. If it's important they will call back.
What prompted this thread is that I kept getting calls at all hours from "No Caller ID". At some point I answered to see if I could get the calls to stop. When I answered, the other person asked why I had called...
As best as I can tell (because the other person won't have a reasonable conversation to figure this out), someone/something spoofed their actual number, probably somewhat randomly, and ended up using my number. They have been calling the other random person at all hours using my number as the ID. That person gets mad at me and calls back, but blocks their number. They've called about a dozen times, and I've answered twice. Both times they asked why I called them, which is confusing as they are clearly initiating the call.
