Show Notes

We will take you behind the scenes of a call center that placed over 5 million calls to Dutch phone numbers and employed around 60 people. We will show how these call centers operate and how they convince their victims to pay for their ‘services’. You will see the social engineering techniques that are used by the scammers. We will also show that we could easily obtain the list of 5 million potential victims from the call center and how we eventually were able to track down the owner of the call center. #Society #ContentWarning about this event: https://c3voc.de
