What’s the most fun you’ve had with scammers/telemarketers?

When I used to try to engage them with some type of act, they quickly begin to use some pretty disturbing language, like frightening actually, so now I just hang up.

I ask the scammers if their mother knows what they do for a living. One replied, "yes, she taught me everything I know about how to do this."

We stop answering the phone years ago. We have kept the land lines but just don't answer them.

I just pick up and say nothing.

DH and I simply pretend to be old deaf people and wait for them to hang up.

When called, An Indian voice said, “We have found a virus on your Microsoft.” I acted scared, “Oh no, what do I do?”

I was told to relax and their experts would walk me through the process to remove it. I said, “Whew! I sure hope so. I’m scared.”

I was assured everything will be back to normal soon. “Do you see the Windows button on your keyboard?”

“That thing that has 4 little squares in it like window panes?”

“Yes. Press the button, please.”

“Are you sure it won’t make the virus worse if I press it?”

“No problem, press the button. It will be okay.”

“Okay, let me find the button again. I’m really, really scared!” I spend about a minute pretending to look for the button saying, “Ooooh, I hope this works. Please let it work.”

“You will be fine. Tell me when you have pressed the button. “

After a few seconds I say, “Okay, I pressed the button. What do I do now?”

“Type this URL in the box.”

“There is no box. I am using Linux.”

Click.

I told caller that the person they were calling had a new number and gave number for the Zoo.
