We all receive them, sometimes dozens of spam calls a week from telemarketers and fraudsters selling extended vehicle warranties, vacations, tax relief, and more. Their sole purpose is to trick you out of your hard-earned money. However, if you've ever wanted to give scammers a taste of their own medicine, Roger Anderson has created a service that routes the spam call to a chatbot that "keeps them from pestering other innocent people."
Anderson hails from California and offers a service called Jolly Roger. The service utilizes digital personalities to engage in nonsensical conversations and waste the time of unwanted phone solicitors, who often call under false pretenses to extract personal information, potentially leading to identity theft.
