How To Turn on/off Scam ID and Scam Block

There are a number of ways to turn on Scam Block:

Network level protection has been added to stop the increasingly common “Neighborhood Spoofing” and prevent hijacked numbers (where scammers temporarily match the area code and 3-digit prefix of the person they are targeting) from reaching your phone.

You can help T-Mobile improve these services by reporting an improperly identified call.

Scam ID and Scam Block are industry-leading free scam protection tools deployed on the T-Mobile network to keep their customers safe from scammers. Scam ID automatically displays "Scam Likely" and the number that is calling on suspected scam calls. Scam ID also catches spoofed calls because T-Mobile looks beyond the incoming number and tracks actual call behavior. Scam Block automatically blocks all "Scam Likely" calls before they ever reach your phone, so you never even see them.
