[QUOTE="OKRuss, post: 4284446, member: 41777"] I think they get the phone number then sell to a marketing firm or 'real' scammers. Not 100% sure but if someone can get your phone number along with a partial recording of your voice I believe AI can use that voice pattern to alter someone else(bad guy) to sound just like the one they recorded. Then, spoof your actual phone number to the one you got and call the elderly parents. What I've told my Mom is for her and the grandkids to have a code word. Anything. A nickname only they'd know. If get a suspicious call, just ask for the code word. Removes the 'emotional' part from their scam. [/QUOTE]
