Apple has filed a patent called "Detection of spoofed call information", which will help them to detect spam calls by analysing call information such as network equipment identifiers, server identifiers. After checking against these legitimate call parameters, the patent will allow the phone to either send a warning alert to the user for the spam call or prevent call alerts like ringing and vibration.
