dialers
Those entering numbers
Dialers are devices or software that dial telephone numbers.
The most common use now refers to automated calling systems—programs that dial numbers from lists, used by telemarketers, political campaigns, and collection agencies: The company's dialer made two thousand calls an hour.
Older dialers were hardware devices attached to phones.
In computing, a dialer may be malware that secretly connects to premium-rate numbers.
