Abstract
The system receives a request for communication from an originator UE. The request for communication includes a unique identifier of the originator UE and a unique identifier of a receiver UE. The system obtains profile information of the originator UE including a name or a region of the originator UE. The system obtains profile information of the receiver UE including a communication history or calendar entry of the receiver UE. Based on the profile information of the originator UE and the receiver UE, the system determines whether the communication is spam. If the communication is valid, the system routes the communication to the originator UE. If the communication is spam, the system indicates to the receiver UE that there is an incoming communication that is likely spam. The system stores in a database the unique identifier of the originator UE and the determination of whether the communication is spam.
