Experts told how to get rid of spam calls
Some mobile applications and services of operators will help get rid of annoying spam calls, experts from the telecommunications industry told RIA Novosti.
Statistics show how serious the situation with telephone spam is: in 2020, 63% of all incoming calls were for calls offering services.
In order to protect yourself from unwanted calls, you can install mobile applications to identify a number previously seen in suspicious activity. However, this is not safe: such programs ask for access to the phone book. This data can then be “used as you like” and transferred to anyone.
Therefore, experts suggest trusting applications from a well-known developer – he values his reputation and takes a responsible approach to ensuring data confidentiality. In addition, there is an “antispam” function on smartphones based on Android – you can be sure of it too.
In addition, operators provide services to combat spam calls. This method is the most effective and safe, experts say, since operators “see different calls and isolate them on their network.”
Earlier, “MIR 24” learned from a specialist in the field of information technology Alexander Vurasko, how dangerous calls are, in which, after picking up the tube, either they are silent or dropped.
