Spam Calls

Spam calls are unsolicited phone calls, often made by unscrupulous individuals or automated systems, aiming to sell products, services, or harvest personal information. These calls can be annoying and disruptive, frequently involving scams or fraudulent offers. Common types include telemarketers promoting various products and robocalls that deliver pre-recorded messages. Spam calls utilize tactics such as spoofing, which makes calls appear to come from legitimate numbers, leading to confusion. Many countries have regulations in place to combat spam calls, and individuals can take steps like registering on "Do Not Call" lists or using call-blocking features on their devices.
