# What to do about unwanted or spam faxes

## Learn what you can do when unwanted faxes interrupt your work.

Repeated unwanted faxes can interrupt your work. WestFax doesn’t currently support blocking individual sender numbers, and the number displayed on a fax may be changed or disguised.

If you recognize the sender, contact them through a verified phone number, email address, or website and ask to be removed from their fax distribution list.

For an unfamiliar sender, avoid opening suspicious links or providing personal information in response to the fax.

If unwanted faxes continue, let us know the receiving fax number, the approximate dates and times, and the sender information shown. We can review the situation with you.
