Cold callers on the phone swears

retired_fabricodalacosta · 09-25-2007, 05:28 PM

Anyone noticed an upturn in cold callers offering this, that and the other on the phone of recent ? Me and the wife seem to be getting 2/3 calls per day and it's bloody annoying. I wouldn't care but I'd actually signed us up on that site which is supposed to help bar such people from calling you. :thdn:

Then again, perhaps it's no surprise with the amount of personal information out there which is recycled and sold from one marketing company to another.

Barstewards.

Ask them how they got your number as your ex directory. Listen to them mumble a bit and say remove my number from your computer.

Job done

More fun telling them you're a psycic and you sense really bad vibes - they'll die tonight in a hideous accident on their way home from work.
