Traceback will definitely identify the US provider to is acting as a gateway, accepting the traffic from overseas.
In accepting the traffic, they have a responsibility to ensure that the it’s legitimate.

While it seems to be way above average, and he seems to be targeted (due to popularity, age, etc.), the point is that international robocalls are still continuing. I am wondering about the efforts by the US government to mitigate robocalls, and whether all the implemented traceback methods are relevant only for US-originated calls, or whether they will work also for international calls. Basically, I wonder whether it’s possible to trace back an international call, and how much this trace back will help. (Could they originate a call without assistance from a US-based company?) I offered him a simple solution to place an IVR on incoming calls, so at least he could filter out the robots. Maybe there are other practical solutions. Any thoughts? -- Pinchas S.
