SPAM faxes

Many people report getting SPAM faxes from 200-300-4000. This is not actually a valid fax number. This is a spoofed caller ID used by many (including the IRS). It can't be blocked.

 

Here is some information on junk faxes from the FCC  that hopefully you will find helpful: https://www.fcc.gov/consumers/guides/faqs-about-junk-faxes

 

NOTE: We are unable to block numbers at the carrier level, but we do try to facilitate the best we can at the server level. Because of this, number blocking may not work for all numbers. If you have blocked a number and continue to receive faxes, after confirming the number is valid, please reach out to the support team at support@bluecloudusa.com.
