Imposter calls become the top threat as robocalls decline: How to protect your phone number and stop spam

We’ve seen carriers and the FTC work to reduce the problem of robocalls in recent years but imposter calls remain a top scam. Want to protect yourself and your family? Incogni makes removing your personal information from the web and blocking spam calls easy.

Unfortunately, your personal information being leaked and abused by bad actors has become a part of modern life, but that doesn’t mean it has to stay that way.

While there are various ways to reduce your risk, most approaches aren’t complete, take lots of time, and are reactive, not proactive. For example, identity protection services only tell you about a data leak after they happen. Or the native “Block this Caller” smartphone features that can’t match the flood of different numbers used to make scam calls.

Incogni takes a different and much more effective approach by removing your phone number and other personal information from the web, data brokers, and people search sites, preventing spam, scams, and more at the root of the problem.
