Robo calla? Robo Revenge

 Have a dislike for Robo calls? 

 There are apps that block KNOWN robo call numbers, keeps the list updated, answers the call with amusing (to the called party) responses "Hang on sweetie, I'm on another line"  then ties up the robo caller's line until they hang up. 
 Problem is they are apps, so they do not work on land lines. The list changes often, no real satisfaction to the called party, ...

 A new proposed app: DoNotPay proposes Robo Revenge. The name may change.
The idea: the caller answers the call, listens to the pitch, then responds with a one-time credit card issued for this particular call and transaction. The credit card belongs to DoNotPay. Once the caller's company completes the transaction DoNotPay has the transaction details on the company. DoNotPay then helps the called party file a suit against the company with an automated process to create demand letters, court filings, etc. Each successful suit can bring a $3000 fine to the called party under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) - a law already passed by congress so no awaiting any proposed legislative efforts. The app will add the called party to the DoNotCall registry if not already registered.

 The legislation is U.S. based so will only work with U.S. based companies.

 The DoNotCall registry does not work. I would think if this method works, the called number makes it onto a real "Do NOT call" list passed among robo callers very rapidly.
