Block list

What is this?

Presumably, my mobile number ended up in a breached data. So, I started to get scam texts regularly.

I regularly report those messages to 7726. However, I thought it could be good to block these domains at DNS level as well.

TL;DR This is the list of domain names that I see in scam texts.

What can I do with this list?

  • Add under your hosts file /etc/hosts
  • Import it to Pi-hole
    • Group Management -> Adlists -> Add a new list
    • Address: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/leventyalcin/uk-scam-text-dns-block/master/hosts
    • Add
  • Use in NextDNS.io if they approve the repo. nextdns/metadata#738

Can I contribute?

Yes. Please!

  • Fork it.
  • Follow the pattern in the file
  • Change it. (I hope you sign your commits!)
  • Raise a PR.
