@Foreign_Hacker#156990 You may have noticed “smart” SSA scammers release robocalls with differenr CID over a period of 4 hours or so. Typically their phone pattern is 555-555-nnnn “nnnn” is not predicatable but every hour I search for pattern 555-555-
On the surface it doesn’t appear that many scammer.info users are engaging them frequently. I’d have to guess is that the traffic is coming from Bob users, scammer revolts and other sites.

@Foreign_Hacker#157236 Agreed. To take the “Shaun Parker” refund scam group, today I got their first number right as they sent it out (by pure luck, it was marked as a SSA scam by robokiller but when I called it it was the Shaun Parker refund), put it on BobRTC and watched as a multitude of scambaiters flooded, rickrolled and generally destroyed it. They sent out another number a few hours later, which wasn’t picked up by us until later as well. Turns out they took more notice of calls from the second line than ones from the first.
Test
I’m pretty much the new kid on the block but I’ve been on BobRTC every day since I discovered it, (all of two days ago). I find it interesting that many times I’ll call a number and get hung up on. If I call right back, I get hung up on again. This may be a naive or already well-known phenomenon but I’m guessing that if they’re used to getting 10 calls an hour and all of a sudden they start getting 10 calls a minute they figure they’re being targeted and just instantly hang up on everyone.

Bob RTC doesn't seem to archive old numbers so given that most SSA scams have a lifespan of about an hour or two, most of the numbers listed on there will be long dead. If you call and the line hangs up instantly, that's not being done my humans, it's just a sign that the number is down.
@elvis#157412 I’d take phone numbers from the main landing page as opposed to the phone book - when I started with BobRTC I used numbers from the phonebook and hardly got through. The only numbers from the phone book worth using are the XP farming ones for call tokens, I can give you a brilliant one to farm if you want. The numbers on the landing page are the newest and have the most chance of being active.
@FattyMatty#156860 I call daily before work. My band of brothers have taken down many of these scammers
I am active at least 1 day a week. If I get a lot of free time I make it more. I usually like to have a few hours to continually call scammers non-stop. I feel like they end up winning if I only call in a few times then have to leave for work, shopping, date night, ect. It is very satisfying when you feel the frustration in the scammers after they realize old John Talflator and Karl Reed continually call for hours on end from an unending stream of different numbers.
@Telescope#157097 ha love this 
@Telescope#157425 agree 100%. The phone book isn’t terribly useful

I see. Thanks - you just saved me a lot of time. Are BobRTC numbers sorted in any kind of order? Like are the newest numbers first in the list?

OK, that's good to know. I was wasting more of my time than their time by calling all those disconnected numbers :-)

That makes sense. I was thinking, "Oh I've got 10 minutes free, I'll call some scammers" but it makes more sense to wait til you have a longer block. That way you have more time to play if you hook a live one. I'm pretty good on guitar but only still learning to play the bhen chod.
