Malicious caller identification

Type of enhanced telephone service

Malicious caller identification, introduced in 1992 as Call Trace, is activated by the vertical service code *57, and is an upcharge fee subscription service offered by telephone company providers which, when dialed immediately after a malicious call, records metadata for police follow-up. Generally, law enforcement will only act on the trace once a formal police report has been filed in regard to the call.
