Hi,

I had a few phone calls from ppl asking me why I rang them but I never did. 
I did not report that as it was only few times.

today I was informed by my colleague that my number is showing as suspected spam.

what can I do to stop it?

I would like to keep this number as I am using it from 12 years now.

It's because scammers have spoofed your number and others have reported it.

Not much you can do as it's a flaw in the reporting system.

As. I've said many times on here, reporting spoofed numbers is wrong and pointless.
