Frequently asked questions about SpamStamp

What SpamStamp is

• SpamStamp is a self-help software tool for preparing a formal TCPA notice about a spam text, which you send in your own name.
• It is a by-the-book step you take yourself — you review the document, you decide whether to send it, and you are always the sender.
• It is not a law firm, it does not give legal advice, and it represents no one.
• It handles federal law only (the TCPA) and is shown identically to everyone, with no state-by-state guidance.

What SpamStamp is not

• It is not a spam blocker or call filter — it is not RoboKiller or Nomorobo, and it does not stop texts from arriving.
• It is not a caller-ID or reverse-lookup app — it is not Truecaller, Whoscall, or Hiya, and it does not look up numbers on demand.
• To be plain: SpamStamp does not block, filter, or identify callers.
• It is not a law firm, and it does not file lawsuits or take anyone to court on your behalf.

Common questions

1. Does SpamStamp block or filter spam texts?

   No. SpamStamp does not block, filter, or identify callers. It is not a spam blocker like RoboKiller or Nomorobo, and it will not stop messages from reaching your phone. It is a separate kind of tool: it helps you prepare a formal, documented notice about a text you already received, which you then send in your own name. If your goal is to stop messages from arriving, a blocking or filtering app is the right tool, and you can also forward the message to 7726 to alert your carrier.

2. Does SpamStamp tell me who texted me?

   Not on demand. SpamStamp is not a caller-ID or reverse-lookup app like Truecaller or Hiya, and it does not promise to reveal who is behind a text. Senders spoof numbers, use short codes, and hide behind third parties, so a sender often cannot be safely identified. SpamStamp names a party only when trustworthy records support it, and it will tell you honestly when it cannot. When a sender can't be identified, the most useful step is usually to report the message — see the reporting question below.

3. Does SpamStamp give legal advice?

   No. SpamStamp is self-help software, not a law firm, and it does not give legal advice. It helps you prepare a factual document and points you to primary sources — the TCPA statute at 47 U.S.C. 227, and the FTC and FCC — so you can understand your rights yourself. If you want advice about your specific situation, that is a question for a licensed attorney, not for a software tool.

4. Does SpamStamp file lawsuits or sue anyone?

   No. SpamStamp files nothing and sues no one. It is not a robot lawyer and it does not take anyone to court. A formal notice is not a lawsuit — it is a factual letter you send in your own name stating that you received an unwanted text and referencing the relevant law. It is a by-the-book step you take yourself. What happens after you send it is up to you and the other party.

5. Who actually sends the notice?

   You do. You are always the sender. SpamStamp helps you prepare the document; you review it, you decide whether to send it, and it goes out in your own name. Nothing is sent, filed, or mailed without your explicit confirmation. Think of it the way you would a self-help tool for preparing your own paperwork: the tool does the drafting help, and you remain the person taking the action.

6. How does SpamStamp decide whether my situation fits?

   You paste the spam text and a few facts about it, and SpamStamp checks whether those facts support a by-the-book notice under the federal TCPA — for example, whether the message looks like unsolicited marketing, whether you had opted out, or whether your number is on the Do-Not-Call registry. If the facts don't support a notice, it tells you so plainly rather than pushing you forward. It does not evaluate state-specific claims.

7. Is SpamStamp a law firm, and is it legit?

   SpamStamp is an independent software company, not a law firm. It provides no legal advice and represents no one. What it offers is a clearly-scoped self-help tool: it helps you prepare a formal notice you send yourself. Every substantive page says the same thing — not a law firm, not legal advice — because being straight about what the tool is and is not is the whole point.

8. What if the sender can't be identified?

   That is common, and SpamStamp is honest about it. When a sender can't be safely identified, a formal notice usually isn't the right move — but you still have good options. You can forward the message to 7726 (SPAM) to alert your carrier, report it to the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov, and file with the FCC at fcc.gov. These free channels help authorities track senders and are a solid first step whether or not anyone can be identified.

9. How much does SpamStamp cost?

   SpamStamp is a low monthly subscription that gives you access to the self-help tool for preparing formal spam-text notices. There is no percentage-of-anything fee and no per-notice charge, and you can cancel anytime. It is software, not a legal service. See the pricing page for current details.

Not a law firm, not legal advice

SpamStamp is a self-help software tool, not a law firm, and nothing here is legal advice. It helps you understand your rights under the federal TCPA and prepare a formal, factual notice that you send in your own name. You are always the sender.
