The database of phone numbers and comments is created by users themselves through the website.
Comments can be added by registered users anonymously as well. Just like any other forum, it is not possible to 100% ensure the credibility of the comments. Therefore we reserve the right to delete comments or block comments for a particular number 3107819352.
Every user can deactivate any comment until the moderators deal with it. Just click the Delete button in the menu found at each comment. The user is then redirected to a short form where they can explain to moderators why they believe the comment is harmful.
The forum is partly moderated. Thousands of comments are added to the site daily so it is not in our power to check them all. Therefore we deal mainly with suspicious and reported comments.
