Got a call that felt wrong? Report the number.

How reporting works

1. Type the number above. It opens that number’s page, right at the report form.
2. Choose what the call was about and how it reached you. Add a note if you like: only we read it, and it is never published.
3. A quick check confirms you’re a person, not a bot. Your report is counted on the number’s page at once.

Visitor reports appear as counts and categories, kept apart from the FTC’s complaints. They never change a number’s stamp, because caller ID can be faked and a report can’t prove who called.

Report it to the authorities too

• The FTC collects scam reports for law enforcement: reportfraud.ftc.gov. Unwanted sales calls go to the Do Not Call complaint form at donotcall.gov, and those complaints are where most of the reports on this site come from.
• The FCC takes complaints about robocalls and faked caller ID: consumercomplaints.fcc.gov.
• If you paid or shared details, call your bank or card company first, using the number on your card. Then report it to the FTC, which gives you a recovery plan at identitytheft.gov if your identity was stolen.

Stop them coming

Reporting helps the next person. To stop the calls reaching you, turn on your phone’s call screening and your carrier’s free spam filter: how to stop spam calls, step by step for iPhone and Android.

Is someone reporting your number?
