Description
The present invention relates to spam call blocking, and more particularly, to a spam blocking system and method for providing a spam call blocking service for a wired communication terminal and a spam authentication device therefor.
With the development of communication technology, the spread of mobile communication terminals has increased, and thus, more rapid communication and transmission of various multimedia contents by using mobile communication terminals are possible. However, behind the development of the communication technology, spam calls for advertising or promotion for unspecified communication subscribers have been greatly increased, causing a lot of damage to communication subscribers.
For example, a spam call to advertise various products, especially loans, can be faked as a regular phone to deceive that it's a spam call, or to make the phone ring once and then hang up in the same way you make a call. In other words, it is damaging in a way that stimulates the curiosity of the subscriber and causes the subscriber to call again.
On the other hand, in recent years, with the expansion of the high-speed Internet infrastructure facilities to enable high-speed data communication, Internet telephony services using the Internet network are widely used. Unlike ordinary landline telephones using PSTN-Public Switched Telephone Networks, Internet telephones do not incur charges in sections within the Internet network, so the cost of calls is so low that their use increases rapidly in homes and offices. There is a trend. In other words, the use of landline telephones has gradually decreased due to the spread of mobile communication services.
As the use of Internet phones increases, spam calls increase. As described above, the Internet phone is not only low in cost but also available abroad at the same cost as in Korea, and there are an increasing number of cases of illegal phone fraud such as voice phishing using Internet phone in China. In addition, the Internet phone uses an identification number, for example, "070", so that general communication subscribers confuse the phone number of the spam phone with the identification number of the Internet phone and become more defenseless against the spam phone.
Various attempts have been made to block such spam calls. Representatively, Korean Patent No. 10-869243 outputs an incoming bell only when the incoming call is maintained for a certain time by delaying the incoming call for a predetermined time when a call is made to an outgoing number not registered in the phone book of the telephone. Or, if a call is received from an outgoing number that is not registered in the phone book, register the outgoing number in the spam management memory temporarily, and then instruct the other party to call back. I'm proposing.
In addition, Korean Laid-Open Patent No. 10-2003-30516, when a telephone call is made, determines whether the registered call reception number and the calling number are the same, and if it is the same, checks whether the reception time is the second reception rejection time. It is proposed a method of blocking the call of the calling number only when.
However, the conventional spam blocking method is a method of using a phone book stored in a telephone, which is useful for communication subscribers who call only a limited number of people, and is not useful for communication subscribers who call with an unspecified number. not. It is practically impossible to store in the phonebook all of the unspecified numbers that are likely to make a call. In particular, it is expected that the number of telephone numbers will increase exponentially due to the spread of Internet telephones and the spread of mobile communication terminals. However, it is inconvenient for a user to register many telephone numbers in the telephone directory to prevent spam. In addition, the first method of the conventional anti-spam method is to guide the other party to call again to prevent spam, when a direct person such as voice phishing to make a spam call is still exposed unprotected.
The present invention was devised to solve the above problems, and uses a Calling IDentification (CID) service in a communication network without the user having to register a spam telephone number in advance with a wired communication terminal such as an Internet telephone. Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a spam blocking system for providing a spam blocking service to a wired communication terminal, a method thereof, and an apparatus therefor.
Other objects and advantages of the present invention can be understood by the following description, and will be more clearly understood by the embodiments of the present invention.
