Fraud Advisory:3
Through our membership with the Communications Fraud Control Association, MICRO VOIP TELECOM has access to a comprehensive list of over 60,000 terminating international numbers confirmed as dialer locations and/or international revenue share fraud. Our Customer Support Operations department has completed placing blocks on these terminating numbers in an attempt to prevent any fraudulent termination to these locations. In addition, MICRO VOIP TELECOM has included blocking terminating ANIs that has been verified as fraudulent by customers utilizing our network.
Through trending of recent fraudulent activity on the MICRO VOIP TELECOM network, we have also identified countries as highly fraudulent regions, with limited legitimate calling, and have blocked these country codes on our network. If your customers need to place legitimate calls to one of these terminating countries, please contact your dedicated account representative and we can work with you to open this terminating location for a limited timeframe.
