SLIGHTLY OFF TOPIC:
Lately I've been getting calls to my Tmobile cell phone with CNAMs such as Scam Likely and Nuisance Call. Even without the CNAM I know they are call centers so don't pick up, but I'm wondering who assigns that CNAM? I'd expect Tmobile to dip the CNAM but doubt the official database would flag the number this way. If it's coming from the call center app it's pretty funny. I don't know anywhere else along the call path it would be changed.

Android phone? It's from Google, not T-Mobile. --fred T-Mobile does have a contract service that provides a database of supposedly bad actors. That's a known program, quite separate from what the smart phone OS might be doing.
