I got less than 2 outright scam calls in EU for as long as I have a phone. But if I use a foreign service that allows me to set an arbitrary caller ID, it will get through to my phone no problem.
I have no idea where the filtering happens, but if it fails one day, we’re in for a lot of hurt. Oftentimes even the legitimate companies, like banks, will call you, and demand personal information from you “for verification purposes”. Then, tries to sell you a loan, or an insurance. They always act surprised I’m not keen on sharing my personal info with a stranger.
