I wonder what would happen if the telco would say "we wont pay the bill, since we believe it is fraudulent".
They wont "lose much" if some fraudulent telco from third world cuts them - the numbers dont work anyway.
And what can the scammers do? Try to sue an US telecom? If they reveal their true names, then the embassy knows where to send the "operators" who will solve the case for good.
- londons_explore 5y agoThere is normally a long chain of intermediate telco operators between the fraudsters and the US operator. Some of those intermediate operators are large and have a lot of legit calls. Each operator adds their profit margin on and passes the bill to the next. So no operator has any incentive to police this stuff, because they all profit from it.
