Abstract

A caller identification apparatus, in order to make, with higher precision, a sharp distinction between a call from a fraud and a call from a person who is not a fraud, comprises a storage means and a voice characteristic analysis means. The storage means stores both a white list with which first voice characteristic information, which is the voice characteristic information of closely related persons of a call recipient, is registered and a black list with which second voice characteristic information, which is the voice characteristic information of frauds, is registered. The voice characteristic analysis means acquires the voice data of a call, obtains third voice characteristic information, which is the voice characteristic information of the voice data, and determines whether the third voice characteristic information matches the first voice characteristic information or the second voice characteristic information. If the third voice characteristic information matches neither the first voice characteristic information nor the second voice characteristic information, the voice characteristic analysis means determines whether the third voice characteristic information includes the voice characteristic information of any multiple persons. If the third voice characteristic information includes the voice characteristic information of any multiple persons, the voice characteristic analysis means obtains a first determination result that the call is probably a call from said frauds.
