several years ago I got probably 5 calls a night from different telemarketers..one day a girl called and wanted me (and my now ex-wife) to go look at some land in the N. Georgia mountains..I got excited, she got excited (thinking she FINALLY had one on the hook), I got more excited, she got more excited..then in order to qualify, I had to answer a few questions..I said ok..so it was the typical address, phone (I answered these as she already had the info)..then she asked about family income..I told her I was unemployed but my wife worked part-time, when can I come look at the land..SHE hung up on me and within 30 days ALL calls stopped (since telemarketers sell the info to each other, mine hit as "unemployed")..they haven't restarted since..

I told her I was unemployed

Had a credit card offer call once. Lady asked the usual questions:
Date of Birth
Address
Work

I told her I was unemployed. [I thought at would end the call.] She responded, "Ok, your card will be in the mail in a few days."

About 3 days later, the card arrived with a $5,000 credit limit.
