You may already know that WhatsApp users can make free voice and video calls to other WhatsApp users over the Internet using their phone or computer. However, within WhatsApp, there is no built-in option to mute incoming calls if you want to stop receiving calls from everyone or someone you know or don’t know. When you receive unwanted WhatsApp calls from spammers, hackers or telemarketers, you can report them and block them on WhatsApp. This will completely prevent them from contacting you via WhatsApp.
Once you block a contact, that contact can’t contact you through voice or video calls, but can’t send messages, see your last seen, status, profile picture, and more.
