US customers receive 200 million robot calls every day
According to the TNS 2019 RoboCalls Investigation Report of
Transaction Network Services, 30% of all calls made to the United States are
made up of non-essential calls. These calls are made up of fraudulent or from
advertising companies. This report shows that American consumers receive 200
million unnecessary calls daily.
TNS analyzes over 1 billion calls a day made by
hundreds of mobile carriers.
The purpose of TNS is to prevent spam calls from
reaching users with the help of machine learning. According to TNS, personal
calls for money and personal information are the riskiest.
According to a report, US consumers made 26.3 billion robot
calls in 2018.
That was 46 percent more than last year.
It may not be possible for American consumers to get rid of
robocalls 100%, but there are a few ways they can be avoided.
This requires reporting a rookie call by registering a
number in the FTC's Do not call registry.
Users can enable Do Not Disturb mode in the consumer phone,
which allows them to receive calls only from their contact numbers. Samsung
Galaxy S, Galaxy Note, and Pixel Phones have already added features that already
tell that this call is spam, so no need to answer it. Users can also get rid of
robocalls using applications like Nomorobo, Hiya, and RoboKiller.
To get rid of robots calls coming from specific numbers of
companies, users can get rid of company-specific numbers by blacklisting them.
