The Finnish Transport and Communications Agency Traficom adopted on 16 May 2022 an updated version of its Regulation 28. It imposes new obligations on telecommunications operators to prevent caller ID spoofing and the transfer of scam calls to recipients. The objective of the updated Regulation is to prevent the use of Finnish telephone numbers in international cybercrime and to reduce the number of scam calls from abroad. The obligations to prevent the use of spoofed numbers enter into force gradually: they become applicable to telephone numbers in fixed networks from 1 July 2022 and to numbers in mobile networks from 2 October 2023.
