Why do numbers show up as “unknown caller”?

Incoming calls are displayed as unknown when the number is unlisted or made through a VoIP service. When a number is unlisted, it means the person, company or organization could be trying to keep their information private by intentionally removing it from phone number directories.

In these cases, it's best to check spam scores and recent complaints for the number since it may be involved in an spam or robocaller campaign. Reverse phone searches can still be used to track down information about these numbers.
