100 ways to annoy phone solicitors

[Yaniv]

54: Here's one that will DEFINANTLY get the telmarketer to hang up and never call back: ANY time one calls say: "This is the sixth time you have called me today. I'm a lawyer, and I'm sueing you personally. Give me your name and I.D."


55: Ask them for every single detail, and when they're finally finished, say "Nope, not interseted", and then hang up.

56: When you pick up the phone, pretend you're a phone sex operator... "You're talking to Candy, and I'm wearing nothing but..."
