Numbers reported as harassment in United States

Harassing calls include repeated contact, threats, insults, or any intimidating communication. This behaviour is illegal and can be reported to the authorities. If you receive such calls, document each incident.

Harassing calls are defined by their persistence: repeated calls at any hour, instant hang-ups, silence, or intimidating messages. Unlike commercial spam, the aim is not to sell but to disturb, frighten or control, and it can amount to a criminal offence of coercion or harassment under Spanish law. The advice is not to engage with the caller, block the number on your phone, and keep a record of dates, times and screenshots. If the calls continue or include threats, report them to the police with all the evidence you have gathered.
