would this filter anonymous calls?

Here in Europe 99.9% of the phone spammers use to hide their own number when calling (while 99.9% of your usual correspondents won't).
Would this trick allow to silence anonymous calls?

(ideally, I'd dream of an automatic redirection of anonymous calls to the voicemail, but this is probably another story...)
