Scam voicemail reporting for iPhone

Turn scam voicemails
into takedown reports.

Share a voicemail from Phone.app. NumBan extracts the callback number, cross-verifies it against the audio, and routes an abuse complaint to the carrier. Then it tracks whether the number goes dead.

Features

Real impact, not just blocking.

Most apps block numbers after they call you. NumBan reports them so they get shut down for everyone.

Kill tracking

Watch scam numbers go dark.

We re-check reported numbers weekly. When a number gets disconnected after reports are filed, you get notified and earn a confirmed kill. Real, measurable impact.

Privacy first

Your identity stays hidden.

Your personal email is never shared with carriers. Reports go through a NumBan-managed relay address. Public pages on numban.com only show aggregate, redacted data.

"I get at least three scam voicemails a week. Now I just share them to NumBan and move on. Two of the numbers I reported are already dead."

FAQ

Common questions.

What is NumBan?

NumBan is an iPhone app that helps you report scam voicemails. You share a voicemail from Phone.app, we extract and verify the callback number, and route an abuse complaint to the carrier or RespOrg responsible for the number.

How does NumBan verify scam numbers?

NumBan extracts phone numbers from the voicemail transcript metadata and independently transcribes the audio on your device. We cross-check both sources to confirm the callback number before allowing a report. This prevents false reports and ensures evidence quality.

What happens when I report a number?

After you approve the report, NumBan sends a carrier abuse complaint to the company hosting the callback number. Your personal information is never shared — reports go through a NumBan-managed relay address. We then track the number weekly for status changes.

What is a "kill"?

A kill is confirmed when a reported callback number becomes disconnected or is no longer routable after abuse complaints are filed. NumBan re-checks reported numbers weekly and notifies you when your reports contribute to a number being taken down.

Is my voicemail audio shared publicly?

No. Your voicemail audio is stored as private evidence and is never published. Public number pages on numban.com only show aggregate, redacted data such as report counts, carrier information, and scam type — never personal recordings or transcripts.
