发生了什么：Ofcom 打击假冒英国手机号码的诈骗电话
英国电信监管机构 Ofcom 已提出新规则，以 打击伪造英国手机号码（+447）的国际诈骗电话。这是继此前阻止冒充英国固定电话来电的措施之后的又一举措。现在，Ofcom 希望电信运营商对来自国外的来电隐藏移动电话号码的来电显示，除非该号码的真实性能够被验证。研究表明，2025 年 2 月有 42% 的英国用户收到可疑电话，26% 的用户可能会接听这类电话，并认为它们是真实的。
Ofcom 的提案是在 BT 的成功行动之后提出的，据报道，BT 在自愿应用先前的固定电话保护规则后，每天阻止了多达 100 万通伪造电话。新措施涵盖了看似来自英国号码的漫游电话，弥补了当前保护方案中的一个漏洞。该监管机构已启动咨询，截止日期为 2025 年 10 月 13 日，预计在 2026 年初做出最终决定。 另见: FCC 以许可限制支持光纤建设者.

为什么这很重要
通过阻止伪造的手机号码，Ofcom 旨在降低来自看似本地来电的欺诈风险。用户更可能信任熟悉的号码前缀，这使得手机号码伪造尤其危险。虽然较早的措施有助于阻止固定电话伪造，但手机来电带来了新的脆弱性，特别是对于依赖来电显示来建立信任的消费者而言。 另见: Ofcom 揭露英国铁路移动覆盖差距.
然而，实施这些规则可能需要电信提供商进行技术更新，如果管理不当，可能会干扰合法的漫游用户。Ofcom 的咨询旨在平衡防止欺诈与满足国外真实来电者需求之间的关系。这一举措的成功很可能取决于监管机构的明确指导和提供商的技术准备程度。 另见: 罗伯特·纽沃斯.
