Funny ways to get rid of telemarketers or handle wrong numbers. (11)
If MCI calls,
ask who it is and they say MCI.
Say "I'm gald you called my pc is not working right.
They say "This is MCI"
You say "Mirco Computers Inc."
Them " No sir!"
I would say "I'm sorry, I have a wrong number."
Then hang up!

My daughter keeps them on the phone as long as possible, pretending she's interested, then asks "Is this what you went to school for?"

HeHe! I like to do that asking them to repeat things.
I like to answer there questions that are suppose to be answered Yes with things like this.
"Sir Do you own your home."
"I own my own home"
"Do you paint it each year"
"I paint it each year." ...etc
Drives them crazy, they get shook, forget their pitch and even hang up.

Those poor telemarketers lets all give them a break. They are just trying to make a living, feed their children or pay off those school loans like the rest of us.

Use the Seinfield method:
Ask them for their home phone number and say u will call them later. When they say they can't do that. Simply say , "Oh I guess you don't want people calling you at home" and they say "right" and you reply "well now you know how I feel!" And hang up.

My sister-in-law's idea was the best I've heard in a long time. One day a lady called and asked to speak to my brother. She asked the girl if this was the lady sleeping with her husband and started freaking out on the girl. She was so flipped out, she hung up, and they never called her house again.

One way to get rid of telemarketers or freak phone callers ( ie,those who just stay silent on the end of the line). Plug in electric guitar to amp, turn all knobs to max, place phone receiver to the speaker, advance guitar to amp and let the screaming feedback fill their ears.....
