Can I prevent unknown numbers from leaving voice messages ?
I'vebeen receiving several calls from unknown/private numbers but no one will answer, it gets full my voicemail it is very annoying. I wonder if I can put some restrictions since it's from a private number...

I doubt it.
Not sure about fizz specifically but in general there's very little control you have over voicemail, you can cancel it though and wait this technology to pass from the world- as it should.1 -
Not much to do than stuck in your phone.
To block unwanted numbers, including unknown or private numbers, on your phone, follow these steps:
On Android:
- Open the Phone app: From the home screen, tap the Phone app icon.
- Access settings: Tap the three vertical dots or the menu icon, then select "Settings".
- Call blocking: Look for the "Call blocking" or "Blocked numbers" option.
- Add a number: Tap "Add a number" and enter the number you want to block. You can also enable the option to block calls from unknown or private numbers.
On iPhone:
- Open the Phone app: From the home screen, tap the Phone app icon.
- Access recent contacts: Tap the "Recents" tab at the bottom of the screen.
- Block the number: Find the number you want to block, tap the "i" icon next to the number, then scroll down and select "Block this Caller".
- Blocking settings: You can also go to "Settings" > "Phone" > "Call Blocking & Identification" to manage blocked numbers and enable blocking of unknown callers.

You register on Canadas not call list. No guarantee this would help, but it can’t hurt.

I got a ton of spam calls when I first started with Fizz as well but it's usually temporary.
They call to see if you will pick up and are fishing for "active numbers".
I was tempted to add myself to the do not call list but that only tells scam callers that your number is active and you're more likely to get spam calls.

Forgot to mention that Android has a pretty good spam call blocking feature. Not sure if this is applicable to all android phones as I can only speak for Pixel phones.
It's a feature enabled by default
Seems like it's limited to the Google stock dialer so if you're using a phone from a company that replaces it you might be out of luck.
