Unreferenced date December 2009 Malicious Caller Identification MCI , also called Malicious Call Trace MCT or Caller Activated Malicious Call Trace CAMCT is a facility which enables a phone call recipient to mark a phone call as malicious i.e. harassing, threatening, obscene, etc. The phone system will then automatically trace the call. The call trace is made so it will work even if the call was made from a silent number , payphone or a number with caller identification disabled but the trace is only available to law enforcement. Generally, law enforcement will only act on the trace once a formal police report is filed in regards to the call. How the user activates this feature depends on their phone system generally it is either a DTMF sequence such as 57 or a special button on their phone. For analogue services, many exchanges will interpret DTMF sequences to activate Plain old telephone service POTS . Digital services, such as ISDN or GSM , enable the Customer premises equipment CPE to activate MCI via out of band signaling.
