The list: numbers reported by NoCall users
This phone spam list only includes numbers that NoCall users reported to us directly. A number gets on the list when it meets all of these conditions:
- Its reports were reviewed and approved by our moderation team.
- At least 2 different people reported it (from different IPs and different devices). A single report is never enough.
- It is still marked as spam by our moderation. If we unblock or remove it, it leaves the list, the last 24 hours and the CSV within seconds.
- We do not count data imported from other websites, generated reports or comments.
How we work with the data (methodology)
No number meets these conditions yet. The list is recalculated every hour.
Updated: 08 Nov 2026, 10:07 UTC (recalculated every hour).
Last 24 hours
Most reported in the last 24 hours
Numbers on the list with approved reports between 07 Nov 2026, 10:07 UTC and 08 Nov 2026, 10:07 UTC (UTC). Same requirement as the list: at least 2 different people.
No number on the list received approved reports in the last 24 hours.
Most looked up today
Numbers on the list looked up on NoCall today, 08 Nov 2026 (UTC day), from at least 3 different IPs. Each IP counts once per number. Lookups of numbers that are not on the list only count in the total: looking a number up is never enough to put it here. A lookup does not mean the number is spam, and it can come from automated crawlers.
Lookups today (one per IP and number): 95, across 95 numbers.
No number on the list has reached 3 different IPs today yet.
