The FTC maintains the Do Not Call (DNC) Registry and publishes the database at Do Not Call (DNC) Reported Calls Data Files. That's because called parties may report a call from your name and number to the FTC.
#LIST OF SCAMMER PHONE NUMBERS TO PRANK CALL SOFTWARE#
You might find your phone number is blocked by software like NoMoRobo. Law enforcement rarely investigates these matters unless there is a threat of physical or bodily harm, so you probably don't have to worry about law enforcement. Verizon did not block any of the spoofed calls even after they were reported to the company. I reported all of the calls to Verizon's Unlawful Call Center in realtime and initiated a call trace for each call. The miscreant used my name and landline number to call on the landline. I once received 7 calls in 90 minutes from a miscreant pretending to be me.
But the FTC usually handles unwanted incoming calls, and not the additional games like having your own number spoofed.Ĭarriers like Verizon are mostly (completely?) useless. The FTC complaint form is at Do Not Call Complaints. You might be able to file a complaint with the FTC, too. Then, for Unwanted Calls Sub Issue select My Own Number Is Being Spoofed. Head over to FCC Consumer Complaints, Form 39744. The FCC handles spoofing where someone pretends to be you. If you are in the US, then you can file a complaint with the FCC. In particular, I think you should report it to a regulatory agency so they have the data point. I think you should do something about it.
