A hiker lost for 24 hours ignored rescuers' phone calls because they didn't recognize the number

Huh, I think I vaguely remember reading something about that with certain non-US numbers. I can’t imagine that working very well these days. I notice almost all the calls are from (presumably spoofed) regular phone numbers, and there are a lot of them, so if that’s still going on, it doesn’t account for even a noticeable percentage of the calls.
