Personally I use an enraged Arabic type of voice when I know it's a telemarketer. I start saying "you givie me free stuff you givie me free stuff?" then I start talking much faster in gibberish and more and more excited. Usually in under 20 seconds they hang up and don't call back. LOL.
I have noticed one thing. If you place your number on the Do Not Call List about every six months the calls drastically fall off. Most telemarketing calls are Robocalls. A machine calls making an announcement or the machine connects you to a sales rep you didn't ask to be connected to.
Ah, thanks for the tip! I placed our numbers on the Do Not Call list years ago, but it doesn’t work any more......so, you have to do it repeatedly? And in nor more than 6 months? Gonna do that today!
Yeah, I got it from the same DJ......
