The individual calls, the script for it, are pretty low tech. If you get someone onto a page that triggers the popup, the rest is old-school boiler room fraud. The fact that it's so easy to do it from overseas reduces the chances of prosecution - you can't rely on a documentary TV crew to bust each one.

Although ... I've seen much worse "reality" shows. I'll bet if a crew spent 3 months doing takedowns like this they'd get a full season of shows more watchable than Tiger King. And for the season finale you could build to busting the ringleaders and freezing their accounts. I'd watch it.

Where do I submit a show idea to Netflix?
