I strongly encourage you to get a VPN and a virtual machine. Also I suggest that you do not call from a real phone number of yours. You can download TextNow or Text Me for free for making calls and texting. If you have a Google Voice home VOIP phone number, it is possible to login to your account and switch it to show Unknown Number rather than your phone number, but some scammers won’t answer the calls or can block the calls since they see the “Unknown Number” and are suspicious.
There are others in this forum though who know WAY MORE about using VPN/Virtual Machine or MAYBE only using Virtual Machine. From what I have heard and read, it is better to use VPN/Virtual Machine than use just a Virtual Machine.
Welcome in 
for safety , create a Windows or Mac VM (or both)
is there a way to do that on a mac computer?
Yes “Fusion” from VMWARE
thank you so much!
you can also use skype to make calls but you need skype credit if you want to make calls to non toll free numbers but since skype doesn’t have caller id scammers will be likely to not answer and since its a unknown number scammers can not block the number

3-what vpn is good? windscribe or protonvpn are the best free vpn

What is scambaiting? A: Scambaiting is simply talking to scammers as if you were a victim, but instead of being victimised, you waste their time. Why is this helpful? For every minute that they spend talking to a scambaiter, they are not spending it scamming an actual victim. Every call a scambaiter makes, they are technically saving people from being scammed.

lol ahahahahah
I honestly wouldn’t let them connect to your real machine even on another user account but you could always download Virtual Box and create a Windows 10 virtual machine so if they do any damage it can be deleted and recreated at ease.
