How to Report Spam Call: Effective Guide for Better Protection

Tired of unwanted calls interrupting your day? Whether it’s spam calls, telemarketing calls, or illegal robocallerspushing shady offers, it’s time to take control.

Here's how you can stop them in their tracks:

Recognize the warning signs

Before you can stop spam or scam calls, you need to recognize them. Watch out for:

• Pre-recorded messages (robocalls) asking for personal data or social security numbers

• A caller claiming to be from a government agency or bank

• Calls from a telephone number you don’t recognize

• Messages urging urgent payments or requesting written permission to sign up for services

Whether it’s your mobile phone, landline phone, or business number, scammers don’t discriminate. But there are ways to fight back.

How to stop spam calls

At Belfabriek, we believe in empowering phone users with tools and knowledge. Here's what you can do:

1. Register your number

In the U.S., the National Do Not Call Registry is your first line of defense. It limits sales calls from legitimate telemarketers. You can register at donotcall.gov.

2. Use call blocking tools

Modern smartphones and call blocking apps can automatically block calls from suspicious sources. Your phone company may offer free or premium call blocking services.

3. Don’t engage

Never respond, press buttons, or answer questions during a suspicious call. Doing so confirms your number is active and might result in even more unwanted calls.

How to report unwanted calls

Here’s how to report and help stop the cycle of illegal robocalls and scams:

• File complaints with the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov

• Report unwanted or suspicious calls to your phone provider
