Combatting Call Spoofing: Truecaller Introduces Secure Calls for Verified Businesses

12-06-2025


In a significant move to combat the rising menace of call spoofing, Truecaller has unveiled its latest feature, Secure Calls, designed to enhance the security and authenticity of business communications. This innovative addition to the Truecaller for Business platform marks a pivotal step forward in the fight against fraudulent calls, ensuring that every call made by a business is verified and secure.

Secure Calls operates by performing a secure backend handshake between the business and Truecaller's system, verifying the caller's authenticity before the call reaches the recipient. This process effectively eliminates the risk of impersonation, a common tactic used by scammers to deceive individuals. Upon successful verification, the call is labeled as a 'Secure Call' within the Truecaller app, providing users with immediate visual confirmation of its legitimacy.

The introduction of Secure Calls is a testament to Truecaller's ongoing commitment to fostering trust in digital communications. Fredrik Kjell, Chief Operating Officer at Truecaller, emphasized the feature's role in protecting consumers and empowering businesses to communicate with confidence. By building on the foundation of the Verified Business platform, Secure Calls offers an additional layer of security, ensuring that every call is not just from a verified business, but also verified in real-time.

Already, leading businesses like NoBroker have adopted Secure Calls, showcasing its potential to significantly reduce call fraud. With its global rollout, Truecaller for Business subscribers worldwide can now leverage this feature to safeguard their communications, reinforcing the platform's position as a leader in identity verification and fraud prevention.

Allsvenskan Title Race Narrows as Mjällby Awaits Stockholm Outcome

{'$date': '2025-10-20T12:08:28.879Z'}


Mjällby AIF stands on the brink of securing the Swedish Allsvenskan championship, with their fate potentially decided during Sunday's heated Stockholm derby between Hammarby and AIK. The southern Swedish club could clinch the title without even playing if Hammarby drops points against their city rivals. This unprecedented scenario has created intense anticipation across Swedish football as the season reaches its dramatic conclusion.

In Bromölla, Mjällby's supporter club Sillastrybarna gathered at a restaurant to watch the Stockholm derby together, reflecting the nervous excitement surrounding the potential championship. "The feeling is that anything could happen today, but we're satisfied either way," said Kristofer Rasmusson, vice chairman of Sillastrybarna. The supporters acknowledged that while winning the title during another team's match would be unusual, it would still represent a remarkable achievement for the club.

Should Hammarby secure victory against AIK on Sunday, Mjällby's championship aspirations would extend to Monday's away match against IFK Göteborg. In that scenario, Mjällby would need to defeat the Gothenburg side to claim the SM-gold. Maximilian Damm, who is live-reporting on Mjällby's title chase, expressed confidence in the team's abilities, stating, "As soon as they get to play a match. That is, on Monday against IFK Göteborg away. It's hard not to be impressed by how MAIF approaches matches, and there's no reason not to believe they won't win on Monday."

The Monday encounter against IFK Göteborg presents its own challenges, with historical data showing low-scoring affairs between the two clubs. The last five meetings have produced just one goal per match, with Mjällby holding three victories to IFK's two. Despite this history, both teams have significant motivation - Mjällby for the championship and IFK Göteborg for European qualification spots and honor. The match kicks off Monday at 19:10, potentially crowning a new Swedish champion.
