[Prov1322]

I got call. I told them I get law suits every year from the IRS. They hung up.

If I saw something like IRS---Washington, DC on Caller ID, I would pick up and answer with "County Fraud Investigations Office".

Should the fraudster continue with their spiel, I would reiterate..."This is the county fraud investigations office, do you wish to report a fraudulent activity?"

This is a never ending game with these people. Yesterday, it was someone telling me my vehicle warranty was about to expire. I asked which vehicle, I have several? She hung up.

My latest way to respond, if they ask for my wife or me by name is to calmly say "what is the color of the day and your operator number". When they don't respond (not that there is a good response), I tell them that they have called a non working number.
