    This is fantastic. As someone who gets roughly a dozen spam calls a day, I’d pay for this service. Just add a “Daisy” button to my phone please!

    Fun concept, love it. But won’t scammers be able to pick up pretty quickly now that it’s promoted?

    Surely it has some tells? I mean changing name is easy enough but what about the accent or the repeated use of dear. How long you reasonably think this can be in play for?

    Next step is AI scammers who will talk indefinitely with AI scambaiters.
