I'm dying over here. This guy says he's created the world's first AI-based call center for actively disrupting and screwing with scammers. Their AI bots are taking live phonecalls at scale and keeping the scammers on the line for hours, and sometimes taunting the scammers. They're tying up entire scam call centers. So entertaining.

@briankrebs I remember a year or two ago someone had a lot of success with an "old man" recording they'd forward their calls to.

"...what? ...oh, could you repeat that? ...you know who's good with this sort of thing? My niece, I think she's 24 this year...no wait, her birthday is in December so I think it's 25..." etc.
