Methods and systems for forwarding anonymous and unknown calls

摘要

Methods and systems for forwarding anonymous and unknown calls include a call forwarder that receives call signaling messages from a calling party end office. The call forwarder determines whether a call identified by the call signaling message is anonymous or unknown. In response to determining that the call is anonymous or unknown, the call forwarder determines whether the calling party has an anonymous call forwarding feature. In response to determining that a calling party has an anonymous call forwarding feature, the call forwarder forwards the call to a predetermined destination.
