I wonder if there is way to get a personal 900 # and cost the spammer $10 per minute. For $600/hr, I wouldn't mind to receive the spamming calls from them.

For $600/hr, I wouldn't mind to receive the spamming calls from them. Maybe some robo dialer might just be stupid enough to call? $$$$ :-)
- Scoundreller 7y agoThat's a thing in the UK: https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-23869462 https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-23869462 7p/minute, but still not bad. The whole problem with robocalls is that your provider gets paid some small pittance to terminate the call, but gives none of that to you. Because they don't want to change, they drag their heels and complain and complain.

- MRD85 7y agoSome guy in the UK did this. It's fairly hard to manage however, because there is a lot of regulations around his legal requirements i.e. needs to disclose that it's a paid number, etc. He make a bit of sidecash off it and a surprising number of spam callers are happy to pay.
