Patent attributes
Systems and methods for network-controlled scam/robocall handling are described. When an incoming call for a user device is received, a user may elect to add the originating number of the incoming call to a block list or a report list at the network level. Future calls from the originating number, if placed on the block list, are then blocked by the network from being received by the user device. Numbers on the report list may be moved by the user from the report list to the block list, and numbers on the block list may be moved from the block list to the report list. Also, the user may request additional information in order to determine whether to add the originating number to the block list or the report list.
