65% of the calls Indiana residents reported showed the resident's own area code, and 71% showed a Indiana area code of any kind. 9% came from toll-free numbers.

Do Not Call protection in Indiana
Indiana is one of the states that maintains its own Do Not Call registry alongside the federal National Do Not Call Registry, so telemarketers calling Indiana numbers are expected to check both lists. Registering on the federal list at donotcall.gov is free and never expires; the state list is administered separately and may have its own registration process and renewal period.
Whatever your state does, the federal National Do Not Call Registry applies, and the Telephone Consumer Protection Act gives you a private right of action against certain unlawful calls. Report unwanted calls at the FCC complaint centre and fraud at ReportFraud.ftc.gov. In Indiana, the Indiana Attorney General also takes consumer complaints about scam calls.
