Robo Calls with Caller ID "Public Mobile"

sssmith — Mon, 19 Sep 2022 22:49:34 GMT

We keep getting Robo Calls with the Caller ID "Public Mobile" and when we answer, it proceeds to speak in Chinese. Has anyone else encountered this? Doe you know how to stop it?

@sssmith this is some kind of Caller ID spoofing. Those scammers have way to fake a new number or name. It really have nothing to do with PM and nothing PM can stop that

I get these spam calls all the time. I don't even bother paying attention what the number is as it is spoofed anyway.

Do you see a number or is it private #. As mentioned it is spoofed but you could block it anyways. You will prob get more in the future, they usually come in waves.

No number on these ones -- just the name. For sure, going forward we'll just block them, though. Thanks for responding!

Thanks. We'll just block them going forward. I figure PM will send me a text rather than call anyway!
