T-Mobile introduces new features to combat phone scammers
- colept 10y agoThis week alone I have received 25 calls from telemarketers, with 9 calls in one day alone. I can't believe it's 2017 and we are still dealing with this.
- DrScump 10y agoI hope they use something smarter than caller-ID, since the provided source number is almost always fake, generally generated to be the target's area code or a neighboring one. I get a lot claiming to be from my mobile's area code and prefix... which was originally allocated as mobile only.
- jrnichols 10y agoI'm happy to see a carrier getting involved in this finally. I know that there are apps like Hiya, Truecaller, nomorobo, and probably more but the problem with them is that their data is theirs. They're little islands of data and if they aren't sharing them, the customer is the one that loses out.
