There are a number of ways to get a phone number blocked. One way is to use a thing called Call Block, which you set up. In order to this, you dial *60 on your landline phone, and then you put in the ten-digit (including area code) number that you wish to have blocked. If you have more than one, then you just enter them in one at a time, but there is a limit to how many you can block. You need to contact your phone company to find that out. Another way is to call your phone company or mobile service provider and request that a number be blocked.

A Verizon Wireless Reverse Phone is a Verizon phone that can directly take advantage of Verizon's reverse number look up service.

You received a call marked blocked on your cell phone can you trace it?

Well, you could *try* to call forward your phone (w/*72) to an 800 number that you have access to. If you have access to an 800 number, you know that the caller ID cannot be blocked when calling an 800 number. This might just end up revealing your phone number though, since the number was technically forwarded from your number to the 800 number. Not really sure about that one, but if the above mentioned doesn't work then I don't think it would be possible. One thing you could do instead is to call up your phone company and turn on "Anonymous Call Blocking." This would force whomever calls your number to reveal their caller ID, which you could then use to identify the caller.
