Spam phone numbers blocked in Hà Nội

HÀ NỘI — Hà Nội’s Department of Information and Communications has asked telecom companies to stop providing service for 348 phone numbers that keep illegally sending spam messages.

The spam messages sent to clients invite them to buy real estate, hire rented rooms and advertise services of lending money at high rates of interest, tutors, concrete cutting and drilling, as well as cesspit cleaning, Internet and delivery.

Phone number owners who have any queries about the service are asked to contact cultural division of their district for further information.

This is the 79th time Hà Nội’s Department of Information and Communications has ordered the service of spam phone numbers to be stopped

In 2016, more than 3,000 spam phone numbers were blocked in the city. — VNS
