How do you identify the caller? All of the robo calls are I get are clearly from spoofed numbers; they spoof my area code from a previous location, but are clearly targeting people in SF, e.g. tax scams on foreign workers, stuff I can't understand in Chinese. Everyone I know gets spam with similar spoofing. If you'll only tell me for $47, color me skeptical. :)

It's simple, you ask them who they are. The ones that are not based out of the US you cannot collect from. I got a call from Florida. Picked it up. Pretended to be interested. They coughed it up 45 minutes into the call after pretending to want to check their BBB page. I hate to give away all the info from the Ebook. Everyone is skeptical. Myself included. I paid him the money because he put forth the effort to put the information together, and he's my friend, I trust him. It's paid off, clearly.

  You'll have to forgive his use of a cheesy domain extension but he put up a quick site to sell his Ebook. Full disclosure this is an affiliate link but at a $7 commission I assure you you're not making me rich. If you want, you can look up all the various laws and have a lawyer draw up a template letter for you, or you can pay the $47. He includes a photo gallery of the checks people have collected with info redacted for obvious reasons. That's what sold me. https://robocalls.cash/ref/keven/ https://robocalls.cash/ref/keven/

  Not sure why I am being downvoted. How else do you expect to extract information out of someone who doesn't want to tell you who they are necessarily? Think about it logically. I really don't know why I bother trying to explain it actually. I'll just keep continuing to cash checks in my spare time, and you skeptics can continue to get calls.

    Because you’re advertising a paid ebook instead of being helpful?

      I gave some helpful tips. Everyone expects me to go into excruciating detail for free. Cheap skates. Bums.

I once was able to confirm (with reasonable certainty) that the caller was using Twilio, because the message they left was a verbatim text from a Twilio example[1] for detecting whether a human answered: "You did not reveal yourself to be human. Goodbye!" Since then I've filed Twilio alongside Cogent in the "doesn't ask too many questions about who uses its services and for what" category.
