How Taiwanese phone fraud fighters are able to warn the world about the latest scams.
Mr Kuo admits that there is a "weapons race" between anti-fraud firms like his, and the fraudsters. And while Whoscall and similar apps block millions of messages and phone calls, some still get through.
"If [they find] the number is used by someone, they will sell the active phone data, or tell you that you need to pay a loan, insurance payment, or remit money," he says. "The most common one seems to be about instalment payments, like you shopped online and you need to pay in instalments or something."
After Mr Lin had ended that call he was soon telephoned again, this time by the other fraudster pretending to from his bank. Prof Sandra Wachter, a senior research fellow in AI at Oxford University, is a global expert on the use of AI software systems.
