Smaller investigations can be concluded more quickly, allowing authorities to move more quickly against ongoing frauds. They also may require fewer investigators and technical resources, allowing more operations to be conducted with available resources, and tend to be more flexible, allowing authorities to react more quickly when offenders move or change tactics.

Telemarketing fraud is a complex offense which requires numerous conditions to work effectively.
A number of enforcement and regulatory options could be used to make the offense more difficult, and less profitable, to commit. Others involve civil and administrative actions which target proceeds, taking away the basic profit motive and depriving offenders of the resources needed for litigation and starting new fraud schemes. What they have in common is that they increase offender costs and risks and decrease potential proceeds, thereby making the offense easier to control and less attractive to offenders. The most cost-effective means to control any crime is to prevent it, since this avoids the costs both to victims and society. Prevention is never completely effective, which makes enforcement and punishment necessary, but educating potential victims has considerable potential in preventing telemarketing fraud.
