Description
The present invention relates to a system and method for preventing spam calls. More particularly, the present invention relates to a system for preventing spam calls, in which a filtering process is performed on a caller to effectively determine a one-ring spam call or a text message through a telemarketer or a mechanical system. And to a method thereof.
The communication field is rapidly developing due to the growth of information technology. As a result, communication terminals such as landlines, mobile phones, PDAs, and the like are widely used, and various information is currently being exchanged between individuals.
However, while there is an advantage that can exchange various information with each other through a communication terminal, the spam that is randomly sent a character for advertisement or promotion to a large number of communication terminal holders by using the reverse.
In general, spam is sent through a landline, computer, communication terminal, or Automatic Calling System (ACS) .In general, only the return phone number of the terminal to be answered after the bell rings once or twice It is classified into one-ring call that is left behind and broken, and voice call including recorded voice contents. In addition, the telemarketers randomly call the communication terminal holder to provide promotional information.
The communication terminal holders are not only troubled with their work, but are also under a lot of stress.
Efforts have been made to prevent spam calls from advertising circles or telemarketers in advance.
For example, Korean Unexamined Patent Publication No. 10-2007-0063974 (published June 20, 2007) discloses a method of blocking a one-ring spam call in a mobile phone.
It counts the time from receiving the universal page message to notify that the call has been received from the base station until receiving the call termination message to inform that the call termination is completed, and compares it with the first threshold time that is set in advance. The present invention relates to a spam call blocking method for determining whether a spam call is based on a result. However, this is simply to determine whether the spam according to the incoming time of the missed call by the one-ring, only the one-ring spam calls can be filtered, there is a problem that can not be filtered when the threshold time is longer, and also to the telemarketer There is a problem that the incoming spam calls are placed in a defenseless state.
In addition, Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2007-0020829 (published February 22, 2007) discloses a "telemarketing blocking terminal, system and method".
It includes a switching server for controlling the telemarketing blocking service when a call is received to the customer's telephone number; Guide sound storage unit for storing the warning voice not to answer the marketing call; A white list storage unit for storing a list of phone numbers to be called without blocking the corresponding customer; And if the outgoing call number is in the white list under the control of the switching server, the call is immediately connected. If the outgoing call number is not in the white list, the caller transmits a warning sound of the guide sound storage unit and calls from the caller's telephone. The present invention relates to a telemarketing blocking system comprising a service server for connecting a call to a receiver's telephone when a signal to be connected is received.
However, this technology is designed to block spam calls in advance by sending a warning voice to a caller (for example, a telemarketer) that calls a phone number that is not stored in the customer's white list. If you try to connect to the call with the receiver ignored, there is a problem that the customer has no choice but to be exposed to the telemarketer's spam call unprotected. Even if the telemarketer and the customer's call time are stored as a report, even if the phone number is stored as a report, if the customer tries to call the customer again with another phone number, the customer will be exposed to the spam call unprotected. .
In addition, Korean Patent Application Publication No. 10-2007-0100993 (published October 16, 2007) discloses a "spam detection apparatus and its detection method".
This includes: i) whether a call arrival / fail signal of a voice call is received for a predetermined reference time (about 3 to 4 seconds); Has the same answering terminal identification information, each voice call is received for 5 to 10 minutes, and iii) a spam call is made based on a certain criterion, such as when the recognized voice content includes a word for spam voice call judgment. It relates to a device for detecting. However, this technology also has the advantage of preventing in advance the wonling spam calls through the mechanical system, but there is a problem that the receiver is unprotected for spam calls by telemarketers.
As such, the conventional spam call blocking technology can block the spam call through the machine system to some extent, but there is a problem that the spam call through the person, that is, the spam call through the telemarketer, is still defenseless. There is an urgent need for an anti-spam technology that can prevent and block not only one ring spam calls by the system but also spam calls by telemarketers.
Accordingly, a first object of the present invention is to provide a system for preventing spam calls by performing a spam call filtering process to prevent advertising spam calls by telemarketers as well as one-ring spam calls of an automatic telephone call system. .
It is a second object of the present invention to provide a method for preventing the above-mentioned spam call by using a method of performing a question-and-answer spam call filtering process.
In order to achieve the first object of the present invention described above, the present invention includes a comparison unit for comparing whether the caller's transmission telephone number and the phone number stored in the receiver's telephone number database; A filtering unit which performs filtering to determine whether the transmission telephone number is a spam telephone when the comparison result does not match; And a control unit for connecting the transmission phone that matches the comparison result of the comparison unit and the transmission phone that is determined to be not the spam phone to the receiver, to the recipient.
In addition, in order to achieve the second object of the present invention, the present invention comprises the steps of comparing the sender's transmission telephone telephone number with the telephone number stored in the receiver's telephone number database; Filtering to determine whether the transmission telephone number is a spam telephone when the comparison result does not match; And connecting the transmission call that matches the comparison result of the comparison unit and the transmission call that is determined to be not the spam call to the receiver to the recipient.
By using the system and method for preventing spam calls according to the present invention, it is possible to simultaneously prevent spam calls by telemarketers as well as one-ring spam calls of an automatic telephone call system through a question-and-answer spam call filtering process.
In addition, it provides a system for preventing spam calls that can prevent the second victim to occur in advance by managing the filtered spam telephone number separately and providing it to the public.
In addition, by enabling the download of the telephone number stored in the telephone number database to the communication terminal of the receiver, it is possible to eliminate the inconvenience of re-entering the telephone numbers of acquaintances due to the loss of the communication terminal.
Furthermore, the current mobile phone billing system is to be billed only to the caller, but in the future, the billing scheme is considered for not only the caller but also the receiver. When the billing system is changed to be billed to the receiver, the receiver selectively selects an incoming call. The desire to receive will be greater. Accordingly, the present invention is expected to satisfy this need.
In addition to the mobile telecom services market centered on SKT, KTF, and LGT, which are mobile network operators (MNO), MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network Operator) will be allowed.
In addition, the recently discussed two-way tariff system should be settled once a month between the mobile network operator and the virtual mobile network operator when entering the mobile telecommunication service market.
It is inevitable that the settlement of incoming and outgoing charges made by mobile network operators will change from simple structure to complex structure with settlement between mobile network operators, virtual mobile network operators, and mobile network operators.
In the background of the implementation of the two-way communication plan in the United States and Canada, the receiver and the receiver charge the charges between the calling network and the receiving network. The interactive billing system will be implemented in earnest with the permission of the virtual mobile network operator.
However, if the two-way billing system is implemented, the unwanted spam calls and the rates of elementary, middle and high school students or the elderly may be higher than the current one-way rate plan.
Accordingly, the present invention relates to a system and a method for preventing a telephone call, which can block an unwanted call in advance through a telephone number database of a receiver, a receiver rejection database, and a filtering process.
Hereinafter, a system and method for preventing spam calls according to an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the drawings in detail.
