Using Tasker to block a specific number I was wondering if someone could help me with setting up a tasker profile to block an incoming call from a particular number. I've seen tutorials on how to block unknown callers or callers not in my contacts list, but I'd like to be able to specify a small group of numbers that would be blocked. Preferably I'd like to be able to just hang up on these callers, but sending to voicemail would be ok. I don't want the phone to ring or notify me at all of the incoming call. Thanks!
Per this link you can create a profile that defaults to phone silence and changes the ringer to not silent when someone you want to take a call from or is not a person you blocked and then when someone you have blocked calls it will answer the call and hangup.

Here is a summary


Create new profile Allow Calls
Add context --> State --> Incoming Call


Specify who to allow calls from (ex. C:FAV (for favorites) or !)
"!" reverses logic (such as is not contact) and 0 can be used for anyone calling from a restricted or unknown number

Add Task --> Audio --> Ringer Volume


select ringer level (7 is highest)

Add Exit Task --> Audio --> Ringer Volume 


select ringer level 0 (to silence the ringer once the phone call is done)

Create new profile Blocked calls
Add context --> State --> Incoming Call


Specify who to block (ex. !C:FAV (is not on favorites)  "0")

Add Task --> Phone --> Take Call
Add Task --> Phone --> End Call 


This should allow your phone to ring when a favorite is calling and pickup and hang up on someone you wish not to talk to without you even knowing.
