Phantel is not a cheap voice scrambler.
A voice scrambler simply distorts your voice, so that it becomes hard to understand by a human hear, but it's very simple to decipher it for a computer. A scrambler just changes the voice's wave shape and/or adds noise to it.
At the contrary, Phantel encrypts the voice using a strong, military grade algorithm that would take billions of years to unencrypt if you don't have the key. And a new key is randomly generated at each call, which means that it's practically impossible to break into a conversation.
