Spam risk call not going to the spam folder on iPhone

Why is my spam risk not going to my spam in my phone calls

Original Title: Spam calls

Probably the first time that number has called. You can delete it, then mark as spam or mark as known and your device will allow future calls. Spam Risk is just identifying the number as potential spam, but not confirmed.

It doesn’t go to the spam folder without help from you putting it there. “Spam Risk” does not necessarily mean its spam, it just means that it MAY be spam from an analysis of its content. It may not be spam, so you are allowed to make the final decision.

They used to go to the spam folder. Messages still go to the spam folder without help. No way I’ve seen to add them to it either. Something has changed. Seeing people complain about it everywhere.

Most likely spammers have found way to fool spam filters.
