The CallKit blocking list feature in iOS 10 helps with this, at least in the case where the caller is not spoofing a legitimate number.

I have a Miami area code and robocalls were a constant problem until I installed Nomorobo.

The CallKit framework is definitely a welcome addition, and Nomorobo is quite good. I am actually working myself on a new app similar to Nomorobo, but with some additional features that so far no other app using CallKit provides. I decided to write such app because of the daily robo/telemarketers calls I am getting.

I will pay well for this provided you do not harvest call activity and your TOS has teeth against that.

All others I’ve found so far harvest and resell your call network.
