It is a list of subscriber numbers that have been identified as destinations
for fraudulent calls.  The list is compiled by members of the GSM Fraud
Forum and the CFCA.

In addition to the subscriber number, the list identifies the organization
that submitted the number and the reason why.

What does the "International Revenue Fraud Number Database" on cfa.org
contain?

 

I agree it's tricky to block based on hosts, you hit one and the others
start popping up.

One option maybe to cooperate with the Communications Fraud Control
Association  (www.cfca.org).  They do vet their members, but they do not
have a mailing list.  The association also has an annual membership fee.

Indeed which is why I stated:

1) Private mailing list - to prevent talks from being seen

2) NON freemail addresses - easier to establish that this individual works
for this company, therefore its highly unlikely he is going to throw
himself, and or his company, under the bus passing bogus information.

The "private mailing list" is not to try to start some secret club, VoIP
Gestapo. It is merely to be able to share data, methods, etc., with other
peers in an effort to keep our networks from piping out 100s of thousands of
dollars in toll fraud. PERIOD. ANYONE is open to participate, with the
clause that we want to, and NEED to be able to trust data. Otherwise it will
never work.

I will re-think this over the weekend and have a take two.
I think it could, and would work. I do also believe that there are likely
individuals even on this list, that would not like the idea much, so hosting
decisions need be met, etc., in order to keep away DDoS attacks, reputation
based attacks, and so forth. That's my train of thought though.
