Bad day for the telemarketers today. Some days I get bored and have too much time so I play with the callers. So far today, two calls to lower my interest rate on credit cards. I always ask, can I still use the card while you are processing this? They always say yes. My reply is, "good because your mother is coming tomorrow and after sex I want to pay her the $10 with Visa.
Usually, they curse me and hang up. Had one that must have called before, he just cursed me out.
Every day for two weeks I get a call about affordable health insurance. They have a few simple questions and then ask my name. I say the last name with a French pronunciation "ja blah may" They ask for the spelling. First name, Heywood, last name Jablowme. Takes a while for them to figure it out but a couple get it right away.
Yesterday I had a call from an agent from Social Security. Seems my number was used to rent a car in Texas and the police found it with drugs. My name is also use to transfer thousand of dollars out of the country for drug cartels. Yes, Mr. Jablowme your social security and bank accounts are being frozen and police may arrest you within the hour. After 40 minutes, they wanted me to go to the bank to get my money out, but stay on the phone while I do. Finally, at that point I was done playing and said, hey just arrest me and save a trip to the bank, its raining outside. Click.
At least while I took their time they were not scamming anyone else.
