MTS and Cian team up to block fraudulent calls for property buyers

Mobile TeleSystems (MTS) and real estate platform Cian have joined forces to tackle telephone fraud. The new partnership will use advanced technology to block suspicious calls and protect users from scams. Many Cian customers currently face unwanted calls when listing or searching for properties. The agreement will see MTS provide Cian with its MTS Scoring big data solution. This system analyses tens of millions of calls daily to identify fraudulent numbers. Incoming calls will be screened in real time, with each one assigned a risk score before being allowed or blocked.

Users on Cian often receive a flood of spam and fraudulent calls after posting listings. The new system aims to cut down on these unwanted interruptions. By filtering out high-risk calls, the platform expects to build greater trust in online real estate transactions.

The partnership highlights how telecom technologies can enhance security for digital services. Cian will integrate MTS’s anti-fraud models directly into its platform, offering users an extra layer of protection. The collaboration between MTS and Cian will reduce fraudulent calls for property buyers and sellers. Real-time screening and risk assessment will help create a safer environment for online transactions. The move also sets an example of how telecom and digital platforms can work together to improve user security.
