What happens if you press key 1 as requested when receiving a spam call?

Someone dear to me just received their first spam call.

A recorded message babbled something like: "Paypal and that €500 was misdirected and you have to press 1 to clarify."

Unfortunately, the person actually unknowingly pressed the 1 button and shortly afterwards the call was disconnected.

To clarify the whole thing, he called back and ended up talking to a person who knew nothing about it.

That’s not much. In fact, they often call with wrong numbers, or wrong numbers are even displayed by other people. They get them zb from fakeshops, fake win, from calls, sms to tv transmitters also apps like Temu and Co. They don’t even hide data being passed on or the numbers are randomly selected. They can’t book money.

If the fraud is then you also have to agree in nix to get money calculated; So what are you going to do?

I know what this is.But in an R talk you can’t agree effectively if it’s not explained extensively on the phone, including the fees incurred. In it you can’t accidentally consent
