I love how he starts out trolling these guys and then turns it into a serious investigation and then actually gets the guy to 'fess up everything. I am full of admiration for his approach and his technique.

I’ve been following Jim for quite a while, also observing the fight and innovation against robo/advertising-calls in the US and feel so blessed to live in a country where these are pretty much non existent.
The last advertising call I got was back in the land-line days in the early 90’s, and already then by asking the caller to not call this number again they would stop calling you …
The work Jim does is both priceless and sadly probably only a drop of water on a hot stone considering the lack of help from authorities in India.

might be a misunderstanding, but I do not have a US number, neither did I imply to live in the US …
