Protection against spam calls

Marketing through spam calls is not only annoying but also dangerous, as it allows cybercriminals to launch attacks easily. Activating Google's caller ID can be the key

Mobile phones can become the gateway for viruses or cyberattacks through spam or malicious calls on a daily basis.

Google recommends protective measures for iOS and Android that are highly effective against the incursion of hackers and other digital pirates.

Specifically, they warn about the need to activate the caller ID for the Phone app, which launches an alert about a possible spam call when it is received.

The function helps to identify whether the incoming call is from known people or not, and whether it poses a potential threat to the user, who has the power to grant access to the call or directly block the number.

Through this app, it is possible to receive information about the number of the incoming call in a hidden manner in order to decide the next action regarding it.
