Caller identification and spam blocking application, Truecaller, is among the top choices for apps that can be used to block misleading, scam or spam calls. Based on the usage patterns and reporting by users, Truecaller has identified key trends in terms of spam calls as well as a list of the world’s most spammed countries in its recent ‘Truecaller Insight Special Report’ for 2018.
Nearly 7% of these spam calls are meant to con and dupe people and surprisingly, this number has more than doubled from 3% in 2017. Truecaller warns this is very alarming and you should be wary when sharing private details that might result in any form of financial loss or impersonation.
