[QUOTE="Ethan N, post: 3234772, member: 29267"] I either waste a few minutes of their time, or, for robocalls, just put my phone on mute and set it down. If everyone did the same I have a feeling these “business strategies” would become prohibitively expensive, but I know that won’t happen. At least wasting a little of their money makes me feel better. Not a scam, but a couple years back someone named Jessica used my phone number when shopping for health insurance. For weeks I got dozens of calls a day trying to sell Jessica health insurance. I got over 70 calls in one day during the first week. It eventually calmed down, but I still get calls every now and then. When it’s not a robocall I break it to the agent that they bought a list that’s over two years old. They usually thank me, but sound clearly disappointed. [/QUOTE]
