Many answering machines have a code that can be entered so the caller doesn't have to listen to the outgoing message. This was essential back in the days of expensive long-distance calls.
If a person wanted to check their answering machine for messages when they were out of town, that person did not want to listen to a long-winded outgoing message, so the code was to bypass it. Check the instructions for your answering machine and see if that feature can be disabled. Otherwise, get a call blocker.

I've already blocked 6 others #s that state the same thing.
The crazy part is that they figured out how to bypass my answering machine message and start playing their robocall once my phone goes to answering machine. There message starts playing out load thru my machine and there in no way to stop unless you answer the phone and hangup.
THIS SHOULD BE ILLEGAL
