Good thought Bill, but that already exists. Or at least partially.
Nuestar does something like that but as of yet they have not been able
to tell me how they would interface with m switches or what it costs.
AT&T uses an app platform that DIP's that DB. There are several iOS
and Android apps that do this, most are not free, some are.

What would be great is a central clearing house that can receive
all calls from numbers that have been labeled as spam? The list
of spam numbers on my phone alone is hilarious. Now if there was
something built in to Android and IOS that automatically
forwarded all numbers labeled as spam to the central clearing
house, maybe we would get somewhere?

It is hitting the 604/778 area codes (Vancouver) pretty
thoroughly. Once they get a live Mandarin or Cantonese
speaking person on the phone they do a scam similar to the
IRS scam.
One of the things I have been thinking about, obviously if
you want to run an English language scam it's possible to
set up call centers in India. Journalists have found them
and interviewed the employees, etc.
But where do you set up a call center of native Chinese
speakers to run the scam. Seems like something dangerous to
do in China with their level of internet surveillance and
court/prison system for financial scams.

Both my wife & have been getting these for a few weeks
now, and I just
heard on PBS that it seems to be "trending" now. They
announced they
will have a feature on it on Monday. I think it will be
between 2 and 3
PM here locally. Have no idea when it might come around
on the guitar in
other necks of the woods.
