Government issues directions for blocking incoming spoofed calls
Share on WhatsappShare on Facebook

It has been reported that fraudsters are making international spoofed calls, displaying Indian mobile numbers, to Indian citizens and committing cybercrime and financial fraud. These calls appear to originate within India but are being made by cyber-criminals from abroad by manipulating the calling line identity (CLI). Such international spoofed calls have been misused in recent cases of fake digital arrests, FedEx scams, drugs/narcotics in couriers, impersonation of government and police officials, disconnections of mobile numbers by DoT/TRAI officials, etc.

Therefore, the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) and Telecom Service Providers (TSPs) have devised a system to identify and block such incoming international spoofed calls from reaching any Indian telecom subscriber.

The DoT has already taken many initiatives including the citizen-centric Sanchar Saathi portal (https://sancharsaathi.gov.in/) to protect telecom users.

Despite best efforts, there may still be some fraudsters who succeed through other means. For such calls, the public is requested to help everybody by reporting such suspected fraud communications at the Chakshu facility on Sanchar Saathi website.
