Since you're in the Windows Phone forum - I assume that's what you're using.

 

To block unknown numbers within Windows Phone 8:

 

  1. Go to "Settings" and scroll down to an option called "call+SMS filter".
  2. Click it and accept the terms.
  3. Press "advanced" at the bottom
  4. Toggle "Block withheld numbers"
 
You should be all set now.
