Who is calling me from this number?

Numbers that appear in threat-intelligence and consumer-complaint data are commonly used for robocalls, telemarketing, or fraud. We recommend letting unknown numbers go to voicemail and not calling back.

How do I block this number?

On iPhone: open Recent Calls, tap the (i) next to the number, then 'Block this Caller'. On Android: open the Phone app, press and hold the number, and choose 'Block'. You can also ask your carrier to block it at the network level.
