Unfortunately if the call charge isn’t stated on the flyer somewhere this is illegal and they’ll get in trouble for it, but otherwise hell yeah.

I bet if that on hold music is YMCA and Lee Greenwood, you could average about 15 min wait per call.

Would they have to put in their credit card information or something? I don’t think I understand, how are they getting charged?

Not sure how to do it, but I know why you shouldn’t. Phone fraud can lead to significant fines and up to 15-20 years in prison, especially for large-scale identity theft or wire fraud

Ah the old “Get fucked for 20bucks” 1-900 classified ad trick.

God Bless America. The land of the free and home of the brave soldiers who fight for our rights. This is a parody. All calls and messages will be recorded through the length of the call. By calling you are agreeing to have your voice rights released for use on social media or other similar platforms. There is a $3.95 per minute charge on all calls. May God shine her light through your life.

Can I do this and forward all my spam calls to that number?

Ben Palmer on YouTube setup a website where people can report illegal aliens. He calls them and shares the results.Â
It’s similar to a fraud from years ago where you would receive a fax (yes those things), saying your entry for the World Fax Directory (not real) is ready, and if you don’t want to be in it, as it will cost you, reply to this phone number (not indicated, but premium cost).
This one is one step off though, they should have a recording of a ‘busy’ or ‘we’re busy due to everyone calling in, so call back later’ voice so that people jusy keep ringing back($$$$)…not that I’m suggesting that.

Hold music should go to a leave a message and then saying thank you for doing their part. That way they do t realise they’re getting played and can keep calling back and fail to report anything.Â

As funny as this is it would be considered deceptive consumer practices and fraud.
Its easy to track down who owns the number and you can get in trouble.
