A phone app can be created to allow smartphone users to identify illegal calls.

The app would:

  1. Block calls from illegal numbers for all smartphone users based on defined criteria.
  2. Report information about all illegal calls to the FTC to aide in the enforcement of fines.
  3. Work with the telephone networks to block illegal numbers from contacting land-line and all mobile phone users.
  4. Provide a method for individuals and organizations to easily remove themselves from the block list if incorrectly added.
  5. Keep up with the telemarketers' ability to change phone numbers regularly.
