TiPS Episode 25 1205 - SWATTING Call Bots: Detecting AI-Generated 9-1-1 Calls


Listen Later

It's a new frontier of public safety fraud — AI-generated SWATTING bots.

These systems aren’t prank callers. They’re fully automated digital attackers capable of:

🔹 Cloning voices

🔹 Mimicking panic

🔹 Driving SWATTING attacks at scale

🔹 Overwhelming ECCs with believable—but synthetic—calls

In this episode, Fletch breaks down how these AI-driven “panic bots” work, how they’re built, why they’re becoming dangerously realistic, and most importantly — how your center can detect them BEFORE they trigger a full emergency response.

🔥 What synthetic 9-1-1 callers actually sound like

From perfect tone stability to missing breath patterns — the red flags every call taker must know. 

🎙️ The tech behind SWATTING Call Bots

Voice clones, script generators, and full-autonomous fraud engines that can respond interactively to dispatchers.

📡 Why NG911 increases the attack surface

More data. More automation. More opportunities for AI-driven fraud.

🧠 Tools for detecting synthetic callers

Acoustic fingerprinting

Breath-pattern analysis

Noise authenticity scanning

Behavioral “disruption questions”

Metadata correlation

…and the real future: AI that flags bot calls in the first three seconds.

🚨 Why this matters for ECCs TODAY

Many centers report already seeing AI-generated calls.

Whether you’re a dispatcher, PSAP administrator, telecommunicator, ESInet engineer, or vendor in the NG911 ecosystem — this episode is your early warning. This threat is real. It’s growing. And it’s coming to a console near you.
