Nearly half of all cellphone calls next year will come from scammers, according to First Orion, a company that provides phone carriers and their customers caller ID and call blocking technology.

The BJP says it has launched a campaign asking that telecom operators pay cellphone users who receive automated calls and promotional SMSes. The BJP has christened its campaign "Cash for Spam."
