The problem

Phone scams are a
$12 billion crisis.

Scammers are professionals running call centers. Every minute they spend with a real person is a minute closer to stealing their savings. We give them Carol instead.

$12B

Lost to phone scams by Americans every year. Most of it from seniors on fixed incomes.

FTC Consumer Sentinel Network, 2023
68M

Americans targeted by phone scammers in a single year. That's 1 in 5 adults.

Internal call data

Meet Carol.

Carol is a 74-year-old widow from rural Ohio. At least, that's what scammers believe. She's an AI designed to be the perfect scam target.

Carol's backstory

Widowed three years ago. Lives alone in a 1962 ranch house. Her grandson Tyler is at Ohio State. She has a pending VA disability claim she desperately wants approved.

She never gives correct information. Always transposed digits, self-corrections that are also wrong, papers she "can't find right now." She mentions Harold. She gets confused. She keeps scammers engaged.

Scammers have called her warm, sweet, and frustrating. She's cost them thousands of hours.

Example transcript
Scammer
Ma'am, I need your VA file number to pull up your claim. It starts with the letter C.
Carol
Oh it's right here somewhere... C-2-8... no wait, C-2-8-7... or is it a 4? Hold on, I've got it written on a sticky note, Harold always kept these things organized...
Scammer
That's okay, take your time. Can you check the letter they sent you?
Carol
I think it's in the kitchen. Or maybe I put it with the Medicare papers. Brenda was over last Tuesday and I may have moved things around...

Hear Carol

What does she sound like?

Carol's voice is generated by ElevenLabs and designed to sound like an elderly woman: warm, patient, and endlessly confusing to scammers.

Answering the phone

Carol's opening. A little slow, a little unsure, but perfectly friendly.

Getting confused

Carol loses track of a number mid-sentence and self-corrects to another wrong one.
