Can’t tell any difference
I get more scam emails than I ever have. 3 or 4 per day. My scam phone calls are down, but I’m retired now and leave my phone turned off a lot. So I’m not sure if that’s working any better or not. I get a notification that I’ve been removed from this website or that website from time to time but I have no way of checking it. Personally I can’t tell any difference in my spam or scam emails or calls.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand how frustrating it is to keep receiving unwanted emails or calls and to feel unsure if progress is being made. PrivacyHawk works by reducing your overall digital footprint — removing your personal data from data brokers and marketing lists, and unsubscribing you from legitimate companies that may still be reaching out. These steps help limit how often your information is circulated and resold, which can reduce unwanted communications over time. That said, scam or spoofed emails and calls often come from bad actors who aren’t tied to legitimate companies or data brokers. While our tools can’t block those directly, reporting them through your email provider or phone carrier is the most effective way to stop them. Within the app, each tool has a tab that shows what’s currently being processed as well as what’s already been completed or removed. These are very easy to spot, but we’re more than happy to walk you through them step by step if that would help. We’d be glad to review your account, confirm that your Digital Footprint and Unsubscribe tools are fully active, and share additional recommendations to improve your results. Please reach out to us at [email protected] and mention that this is from your Trustpilot review so we can assist you directly.
