Spam calls have been a problem in the United States for quite some time now, but things have really gotten awful over the past couple of years. The issue varies by region, of course, but here in the New York area I personally get at least a dozen spam calls each week now. It’s truly infuriating. The worst part is there’s really nothing you can do to stop it. There are a bunch of services that help reduce the number of spam calls you get, and some wireless carriers now even offer their own free spam call blocking apps. Unfortunately, they typically don’t work very well.
Because spam calling rings use number spoofing to constantly make calls from new numbers, there’s simply no way to completely eliminate spam calls at this point. Some apps do a better job than others, and Nomorobo is widely regarded as being one of the best options out there. It works fairly well if you’re willing to pay for it, but now there’s a new iPhone app that takes a new approach to spam call blocking. And best of all, it’s currently on sale for free.
