This *MIGHT* work for you. 

Open the Dialer > Settings > Block Numbers & enter JUST the area code.

For example, I just put in "123" as a Blocked Number. In theory if "123" is the area code, it should be blocked?

Try it & let me know if it works.

Unfortunately Samsung removed some blocking options, ie: Numbers not in my Contacts.

The only other options are:

• Contact your Carrier and ask them if they can block calls from area code ***. 
• Download a 3rd party call blocking app, which may or may not be effective.

Hi thebrez, as suggested by the RedDogRabbit please contact the network service provider or you can also download a Third party app.
