I heard about this on another site, and thought it was a great answer to telemarketing calls.

They call.

'is Mike Smith there?'

You reply:

'this is Detective Jones. How did you know the victim?'

the person that originally posted it claims that telemarketers hang up quickly.

Or, hang up. That has always worked for me.

I liked the one where the guy pretended to be a homocide detective and began questioning the telemarketer in regards to the murder

The funniest thing about the calls I've been getting recently is that they're not even asking for anyone who lives here! And we've had the number about two years now. WRONG numbers from "finance companies"...trying to get money from--someone else.

For the last two weeks, I've been getting calls for the Executor of my wife's ex's estate.. surprised

(Divorced over 20 years from him) Everyone thought he was long dead....frustrated

Well, it turns out that he just died recently in Las Vegas, NV....

But, the joke's on Bank of America... B*****D NEVER has had an estate, in his entire life..... :laughing: rofl :laughing:


Phone is a different # and has been in my name for almost 9 years....frustrated grumble
