This is very similar to advice on the internet given to people, "Just block the number that you got a spam call from."
Unfortunately, spam calls come from a new random number every time, ensuring that blocking the number doesn't work. Also, the number is spoofed, I even got a call from my own number once.
My understanding is they can easily just setup a new route/new ip/new account and start making calls again.
- lolinder 3y agoThis would be less like setting up a new IP address and more like setting up a whole new AS. Sure, it can be done, but it costs the scammer a lot more than a simple blocked number.
- 6DM 3y agoThat’s good to hear, but it’s disappointing how little of an impact these big take downs seem to have.
