Phone spam

October 6th, 2005

So I signed up to the Telephone Preference Service in a (probably useless) attempt to stop the large number of spam telephone calls I’m getting. Its up to about one or two a day now, and always from the same set of numbers. Oh, and they hang up if you actually answer.
This is why we need SpamAssassin for mobile phones! Or at the very least a blacklist/whitelist feature to screen incoming calls. Of course, then they’d all just withhold their numbers or something…
I guess I’ll find out in 28 days whether it has done any good.
