Blocking the numbers from your area code and prefix is pointless. Simple math, from 0000 to 9999 is 10,000 different phone numbers the scammers can use.
It is 100% possible for the scammers to fake your own number and you are calling yourself as far as your phone knows. Just hang up, it is pointless to block that number unless they call from it more than once.
Watch the clip Sidney posted. (Warning: some bad language is used) It explains what and why it is happening. The only way we can stop it, is to talk to your US Senator and Representatives that are in DC. Only when they hear from a large majority of the voters will they require the FCC to do something. And it will take a lot of voters to convince them when the telemarketing lobby can just take them on a "fact finding mission" to Maui to play golf at a 5 Star hotel to discuss it.
