Receiving An Anonymous Threat Call? Here’s What To Do!

Hello Brother! (And also, sister!) Relax, relax, brother! Here’s how you can prevent your phone from giving space to threat calls and also, what you can do if you are receiving an anonymous threat call:
How to prevent yourself from receiving an anonymous threat call?
- Block “kar, kar, kar, kar, kar, kar, kar…!” If you are receiving an anonymous threat call continuously, the first and foremost move is to block. This is because the phone has the option of “Anonymous call refusal”.
- That old & boring pre-recorded precaution/advice is actually logical! No calls other than Caller-ID are essential for the individual to attend. No personal information should be shared with the scam caller.

- No matter how much one tries, be like an introvert and secretive/mysterious boy/girl when it comes to your personal data.
- A lawsuit should be issued regarding the hazard calls. This is the measure that must be taken. A report of the same is made by the police and the cyber cell.
