Chicken and the egg problem. Few carriers support it, so they can't block unverified calls (yet).
So the most they can do is log (display) when a good call comes through. I imagine this requires cooperation on the manufacturers part to alter the phone app to display a verification success.
- flatiron 8y agoI have t mobile and some calls come in with a caller I’d as “scam likely” so they do stuff like that
- dubya 8y agoOne thing they already did is display "Scam Likely" for some calls. This is on an iPhone, but I think it's a T-Mobile thing. It misses a ton of spam calls from numbers that match the first six digits of my own number, and had at least one false positive, which was my bank calling.
