Blacklist question

[sorvani (Jared Busch)]

Look at this post for an idea of what you can do.

Of Robocalls and Whitelists

[The functionality of these scripts is largely superseded by the AllowList Module] … of cabbages and kings. I have several DIDs published for business purposes, and as time passes, they become incrementally more prone to robocalls. This is to the point now that robocalls may well outnumber legitimate calls, with some days being intolerable. The FreePBX blacklist is unable to deal with them effectively because there is no consistency to the Caller ID, nor have I wanted to force all callers to n…

For my personal test number, I took that and when it adds to the blacklist, I set the value as timestamp and Caller ID Name.

; what do you want to do with calls that fail?
exten => s,n(finish),Set(DB(blacklist/${CALLERID(number)})=${STRFTIME(${EPOCH},,%Y%m%d-%H:%M:%S)} - ${CALLERID(name)})
exten => s,n,Noop(Caller failed to enter the digits 3 times with [bender-blocker]. Blacklisting ${CALLERID(number)} / ${CALLERID(name)})
exten => s,n,hangup

That code results in this. Note, the one with the arrow, a person was at the phone and actually entered the numbers so I manually put that line in the blacklist.
