Hi folks we may be hearing a rise in the incidence of VoIP calls faking their caller ID for the purposes of spamming and scamming.
Consumers check the caller ID on their hand CND and accept the Australian sourced number, only to find it is a complete scam. This is often tied to the 'missed call scam' but now they are using genuine Aussie phone numbers and the genuine owners aren't happy. >From my rusty experience at setting up VoIP systems, you should be able to impose filters on incoming calls at the network level here the number doesn't match the source - can people please give me a clearer update on this from the trenches? What are the good housekeeping steps for network operators? Off list please and I'll summarise the responses, thanks in advance -- Narelle Clark narel...@gmail.com
