Scam (spam) reporting

10. After the call is terminated the following screen will appear on the Ringcentral Soft Phone. At this point dial the 9999 Spam Reporting extension to report the terminated call as spam. Next you wil hear recorded voice message “Thank you for reporting spam call”.



That’s it.
Same procedure applies for scam reporting on hardphones (desk phones).
