Normally I tell these guys I'm with the National Terrorist Tracking Center and we've determined they are a terrorist, etc. The last time I decided to change it up a bit and went with, "What are you wearing?" etc. On speakerphone. With my wife listening. Well, wife now. We were in the parking lot of her hair salon having her hair done for our wedding. We have a similar sense of humor. You'd think by now I'd be on their do-not-call list.
- nogridbag 10y agoI've listened to enough of these calls on youtube to realize most of these scammers think they're untouchable (and surely have been for several years) so unfortunately I doubt telling them you're from a terrorist tracking center will have any impact :) While not an Indian scam, I was getting tons of calls for the vacation package scam for months from random phone numbers. If you're not familiar with it, they basically say "You've one of the following: A brand new SUV, and HD TV, or a vacation package! Just come to our office to find out what you won". I'm sure it's blatantly obvious to HN readers that you haven't won any prize and instead they'll try to sell you on the vacation package, but this one bothered me because it fooled my parents. I did eventually get them to stop calling me, but the contents of those calls aren't exactly HN worthy :/
