I have found that if you let it go to voicemail they realize it is a good number. Then they continue to call with different numbers continuously. If I don't recognize a number I ignore it and don't let it go to voicemail. You may miss some calls but you don't want to get inundated with phony calls.
As a consumer my self, I can understand the nuisance of receiving unwanted calls, and even worst leaving a Voice Mail. Verizon Wireless offers you different options to stop these calls and text messages. Please take a moment to review the link below:

National Call Registry only works for a short period of time. And for most robo-calls, it doesn't work at all.
Robo-callers use familiar area codes. So that help is a NOT!
TOTALLY AGREE! Carreers like Verizon should provide this sercice free of charge - especially from long-time, on-time paying customers. But, they don't.
DON'T click on the "verison' link in this article. Just got a notice from my security app - "DANGER....".
