How do you verify it is spoofed? Have you asked your carrier to drop unverified calls from your service?

> How do you verify it is spoofed?

Not my job to "verify," in the technical sense.

When a call for an Indian crypto pump comes in as "SMITH, ROBERT", and a local exchange, I call that "spoofed."

  • Mine literally come from the verified coinbase phone number and say coinbase and everything. If I didn't know for sure they are not calling me I'd think it was real 100%.

    • Yeah that does sound spoofed. I'd call your carrier and ask them to make sure attestation below B is blocked.

  • That's almost certainly not spoofed. They just own a phone number on your local exchange.

    • No they don't. I've called back, a couple of times, and got some guy named Bob, getting all confused. "Whaddaya mean I just called you?".

      Hmm...you seem very interested in redirecting this train of conversation. Why?
