      To me it sounds like OP’s opener is exactly for people who aren’t contacts saved in his phone. It sounds perfect to me

          These days, the only people who call me are creditors (who aren’t supposed to) and scammers

      The only folk who have trouble identifying themselves when calling my private phone, are spammers.
