[VoiceOps] Fraud

[Matt Yaklin]

Did you reach out to your upstream provider who you sent the
calls to and ask what they can do for you? See if they will
forgive the bill since they were obviously fraudulent? Then
do the same for your customer?

Have you offered the customer to cut his bill in half for the
calls since you probably mark them up 100%? In other words give
him your exact cost and see if that helps the situation?
