My approach to non-recorded ones: “How are you today?” “How am I? Too smart to fall for your scam is how I am. Does your mother know you steal for a living? Why don’t you find honest work, you pus-sucking bottom-feeder?”
That’s when I’m grumpy and / or the caller is male; if I feel like having fun & the caller is female, it’s “That depends; what color is your underwear?”
For some reason She doesn’t like me answering…….
