Copy code
js
import express from "express";
const app = express();
app.use(express.json());
const spamNumbers = new Set(["+11234567890", "+15558675309"]); // Add your spam numbers here
app.post("/webhooks/vapi", (req, res) => {
const incomingNumber = req.body?.call?.from?.phoneNumber;
if (incomingNumber && spamNumbers.has(incomingNumber)) {
return res.json({ error: "Sorry, your number is blocked due to spam reports." });
}
// Allow legitimate calls to proceed
res.json({ assistant: { firstMessage: "Hi there! How can I help you today?" } });
});
app.listen(3000, () => console.log("Server listening on port 3000"));spamNumbersc

I understand the frustration here. Currently, spam calls need to be blocked before they reach Vapi.
Recommended approach:
1. Configure Twilio spam-detection add-ons (e.g. Nomorobo, Whitepages, Marchex) in your Twilio Console.
2. Point your Twilio number to a middleware webhook instead of directly to Vapi.
3. In that middleware:
- Evaluate spam signals (add-on scores, STIR/SHAKEN via
