All of the scam/robocalls I get come from India and use spoofed numbers. We have do-not-call lists, but why should a telco across the world care about it? How can we even identify the relevant telco when the scammers are routing VoIP calls through spoofed numbers?
- MiddleEndian 6y agoPhone companies know if it's spoofed or VOIP. They could just not forward spoofed numbers, or inform your cell phone that it's a spoofed number so you can silently block it on your end (or auto-respond with your own bot that pretends to be a person lol). https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26803498 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26803498 seems like the FCC is doing something like this, how it will work is TBD I guess.
