I really want to hear recordings of these conversations. I think it'd be fascinating.
Fark (possibly Something Awful, it was forever ago). iirc, had a run of scamming the Nigerian Prince email farms. It was pretty savage, having humans send humiliating/degrading time stamped/dated photos via email, which in turn ended up on Fark. The first couple of stories seemed funny in a disturbing kind of way, and about the third or fourth column, I was really uncomfortable. Then I read about how these farms worked by trafficked human power.

kitboga made a bot that listens to what scammer says and responds with pre recorded voicelines automatically
Not the same thing, but an older site/service where they would just randomize various automated responses during gaps in the conversation to keep the person on the phone. They have a bunch of recordings.
