If you really want to waste your time, try reporting these people to the authorities in the US. The most credible scam I have ever seen are the report forms you can fill out at the Federal Trade Commission, FCC or FBI which will require an enormous amount of time, collection of an extraordinary amount of information about the incident, and a sworn statement subject to perjury penalties and will result in absolutely no action whatsoever except to result in the collection of wildly understated statistics that they can go to Congress with saying that they need more budget to pursue these malevolent actors.
The FTC famously released a proud report that ten
years of their supervision of the Do Not Call Registry, had resulted in more than 100 law enforcement actions resulting in orders against 291 individuals and corporations. I get more calls than that on my DNCR registered telephones in a couple of months.
