Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for managing a phone number list are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of receiving, by a computing device, telephone call data that reflects characteristics of telephone calls placed and received by a first user. Based on the telephone call data, the actions further include generating, by the computing device, a first telephone number whitelist for the first user. The actions further include determining, by the computing device, whether to combine the first telephone number whitelist and a second telephone number whitelist for a second user. The actions further include storing, by the computing device, the first telephone number whitelist or the combined telephone number whitelist in association with the first user.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for implementing a spam telephone call reducer are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of receiving first telephone call data that reflects telephone calls received by a first user and second telephone call data that reflects telephone calls received by a second user. The actions further include comparing the first telephone call data and the second telephone call data. The actions further include determining that the first user received more spam telephone calls than the second user. The actions further include determining a first characteristic of the first user and a second characteristic of the second user. The actions further include determining an action that increases a similarity of the first characteristic to the second characteristic. The actions further include performing the action on the first characteristic.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for implementing a spoofed telephone call identifier are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of receiving, by a first computing device, data indicating a placement of a telephone call from a second computing device to a third computing device, wherein the data includes a phone number of the second computing device. The actions further include determining characteristics of the phone number of the second computing device. The actions further include, based on the characteristics of the phone number of the second computing device, determining a likelihood that the phone number of the second computing device is spoofed. The actions further include, based on the likelihood that the phone number of the second computing device is spoofed, determining whether to transmit a notification of the telephone call to the third computing device.
