JT THAT YOUTUBE AUDIO WAS HILARIOUS

KEEP IN MIND THAT TELEMARKETERS HAVE RESTRICTIONS, THEY CAN ONLY CONTACT YOU DURING CERTAIN HOURS AND YOU ALSO CAN REGISTER WITH THE DONOTCALL REGISTRY. ONCE YOU ARE REGISTERED, CALMLY TAKE THEIR CALLS, GET THE COMPANY NAME, PHN NUMBER AND REP NAME (FIRST AND LAST) ONCE YOU HAVE INFO, ADVISE THEM YOU ARE ON THE DO NOT CALL LISTING (USA). IF YOU GET MORE THAN ONE CALL FROM COMPANY YOU FILE A COMPLAINT. COMPANY WILL BE FINED AND YOU WILL SEE ALL CALLS CEASE ALMOST IMMEDIATELY.

Just add your number to the national and or state "do not call" list(s). If they continue to call, report them. They can get some pretty heavy fines for that. And I assure you that they DO understand money.

I love messing with telemarketers. love It makes my day. drinker

1. When they call tell them that you are busy. then when they insist drop the phone while screaming it will sound like you jumped off a building. This ones a bit morbid, but if thats what you like have fun with it. I alway get on the floor and say in a really pathetic voice afterwords: "Ow, I think I broke my leg, I'm not dead but I'm in a lot of pain, can someone help me."

2. Try to sell them something instead or may convert them to the Church of Jesus Crist and the Later Day Saints. this can be fun

3. In a very social deviant voice get very excited and say: "Wow! High, Oh my gosh, Oh my gosh" the scream off the phone: "somebodies talking to meeeee!" then ask them a bunch of personall questions like: "what your name?, What is youre hair color?, What are you wearing?, Are you pretty?" then get very serious and say: "guess what I'm doing." pause and proclaim very excetingly: "Eating a bowl of chereos, its got a toy in it." yu can continue if you like but they usually hang up on me. drinker

Wow,
This brings back a lot of memories, I can remeber living in Calif. and we ket getting these calls for the same tele marketer. I had asked them to sto calling and he just never did, so the next time they called I was very nice, and listened to his shpeel and asked him to hold on a sec while I go get me credit card, My girlfriend and I had worked out a skit of extreme yelling at each other using yelling terms like "put the gun away" and "Dont' kill me please" and screaming and the kids crying and the loud sound of a gun going off..(firecracker) good stuff Hollywood would have been proud!! needless to say he never called back. Oh and I also kept getting visited by these walking religous groups asking us to join theresect or somthing, so again the next time they came we opened the door naked, holding whips and cuffs, and asked them to join us, needless to say they never came again....Man the extremes ya had to go through 'til the "no Call back List" I kinda miss those days....

That so works!laugh

I was at my friends house once and we wer all just sitting in the kitchin laughing and having a good time, when my friend gets up and wlaks intothe next room. the conversation continues on when suddenly he runs out of the room stripping off he's clothes as he goes and dashing fo rhte door like a madman. We thought he had gotten to drunk and was going to streak the neigborhood. Then he stos at the door and starts preping his hair, I didn't know what to think then the doorbell rain and he calmly opens the door. I died laughing at the time.

I know that is not right to do, but at the time it was very funny.
