About this listen

Why do scam calls seem constant? How do fraudsters get access to so many phone numbers — and why do some people receive repeated calls from different “companies” using similar scripts?
In this Q&A episode with investigative creators like Trilogy Media, we break down the infrastructure behind scam call operations and explain how numbers end up on spam lists. From data breaches and leaked contact databases to auto-dialing systems, number spoofing, and online lead marketplaces, we explore the systems that power mass calling campaigns.
We also discuss how scammers recycle victim information, how they bypass basic filters, and what platforms and telecom providers are doing to combat the issue. Most importantly, we share practical steps listeners can take to reduce scam calls and protect their personal information.
