[quote=AroundTheBlock]Working in the real estate world I know many real estate agents.  Let me simply say 75% of them are crap.  Now, onto the topic...

I receive real estate agent crap all the time in the mail.  It's very annoying and I would NEVER HIRE ANYONE who resorted to "cold calling" to get business.  Sorry, but any good agent DOES NOT NEED TO ADVERTISE.  I know six amazing agents and they find their business through word of mouth and simply doing a good job.

There is one agent who keeps sending junk mail to my house (with my property info, photos, etc), even went as far as to use a return sticker from a pet adoption agency!  Nice way to get my wife to open the letter.  After 3-4 of them I decided to get even.

This is what I did:

1. I went online to the University of Phoenix and ADT and filled out all their "request more information" form and used this agent's information.  Both of these companies will call 3-4 times a day regardless if you ask to be taken off the list.

2. I took his mailing address and registered a ton of junk mail.

Some of my friends say it's going overboard.   Some say it's perfect.  To me it's getting even.  I don't need some real estate agent who can't hack it to be sending me nonstop junk mail with fake return addresses.  Especially when he's sending me property tax information (yes, I know it's public information but still) or photos of my area and house.[/quote]
