How do I report spoofing to Public Mobile?

hi @Thalia1997 

no petition needed.  this is something no carrier can stop.. not evening the government .  Don't waste time

Darn that's too bad. We should petition for it.

Public Mobile doesn't offer this function. I think Telus does though

There is NO point as PM cannot do anything regarding that activity. So whoever sees your number at it is NOT you has to live with modern scammers.

it's a common occurance these days. I suggest just not answering any calls unless you actually recognise the callers number. If it's a legit call, they can leave a voice message and you can return the call if you wanna.
