"is an upcharge fee subscription service offered by telephone company providers which, when dialed immediately after a malicious call, records meta-data for police follow-up. A police report must be filed after each use, as law enforcement will only act on the trace once a formal police report is filed in regard to the call. "
So, I will get charged for reporting a scammer? And nothing will happen unless I file a police report? That is certainly a solution, but not the one I would hope for.
