Unfortunately, while technology has reduced the costs for us to call other people on the phone, it's made it dirt cheap, and easy for scammers to mass dial hundreds, if not thousands of numbers quickly.. It's cheap enough that they only need one or two people to fall for the scam to make a profit..
