Abstract
The present disclosure provides a method for blocking crank calls by using cloud computing and a system thereof. In the method, a client(s) uploads a blacklist to a server; the server makes statistic according to blacklist data uploaded by the client(s) and determines a particular phone number be a crank phone number, generates an anti-crank policy and updates the generated anti-crank policy to the client(s); when receiving a call or a message from the crank phone number, the client executes the anti-crank policy.
