So far been getting these calls for 6 days straight, averaging twice a day from UK and HK

Wonder if there's a rich uncle or Arab prince looking to donate a sizable fortune to me?
I have not answer any of these calls. Should I answer?
Anyone experienced this before?

suggest you install truecaller and see whether those numbers are scam calls.

No point. I know they are. Every call is a different number. Each day, I will get a call from a UK number, then a HK number few hours later. Always in the evening

If not expecting any calls from these countries then just block by country code.
Within few weeks it will stop already.

I get that too, if I show you my block list, you'd be amazed to see just how many numbers I have blocked throughout the years.
