Incogni app removes its users' numbers from the fraud database

As the influence of the Internet grows, so does the susceptibility of users to personal data leakage and sale. Apps such as Incogni are actively working to protect their customers' information from fraudsters and dangerous calls.

Here's What We Know

A few years ago, the most common phenomenon was calls from unknown numbers with only a recording. While these calls could be effective, they lost the personal touch. However, in recent years, a new phenomenon of "imposter calls" has emerged, where a real person pretends to be a representative of a trusted organisation, which causes trouble and risks for users.

Blocking numbers is usually recommended for such cases, but the constant change of numbers is becoming a problem. This opens up opportunities for fraudsters and causes unsuccessful attempts to protect themselves from unwanted calls.

Incogni has solved this problem by developing an effective system for removing its customers' numbers from fraudsters' databases. This ensures that users remain protected from any troubles related to call fraud. Using an automated service simplifies the process and makes it accessible to everyone.
