Reporting spam calls isn’t just for your protection — it helps authorities and carriers fight back against scammers. Here’s what happens after you file a report.
When you report to the FTC, FCC, or CRTC, your complaint is added to a database that tracks spam call patterns and numbers.
Mobile carriers like Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile review reports to update spam detection algorithms and block similar calls network-wide.
If multiple users report the same number, agencies can trace it and take legal action against the spam operation.
Once confirmed as spam, the number is marked “Scam Likely” or blocked automatically for other users.
AvNexo Tip: Even one report helps. The more users report spam calls, the faster carriers and authorities can shut them down.
