A disconnected client TFN is receiving 30,000+ calls per hour (all failing). The ANIs being used are dummy ANIs 17029983416 (no answer) and 16469820093 (recording saying “no routes found”). </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">This is not affecting our network, although it’s causing the upstream provider a bit of grief. </p><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">Not sure why someone would do this…. We are about to remove the CICs at the sms800 level, but just wondering if anyone has come across something similar? </p>
