I don't understand why these people weren't in jail already!

Yeah, I don't get why this seemed to be such a huge undertaking. The phone companies certainly know who's making all these calls on their networks.

Exactly. If the networks faced consequences for knowingly routing and profiting off these illegal phone calls they would stop fairly quickly.

i assume someone was making money off this, and has made enough money to get rid of them so other people don't make money...
