I do Press 1, then engage the guy in New Delhi in conversation until he finally gets that I am wasting his time and there is no commission in sight, when he hangs up. Then a bit later, they call back, I go through the routine again. Eventually they put my number in a deny list. A) I donʻt have a balance on my Credit Card, B) I donʻt have a Student Loan, C) I donʻt need any mechanical medical devices. You can start by asking the guy What Name is on the card they are discussing with you. Then ask which bank issued the card, (which they donʻt have), then ask what the balance is on the card to which they are referring. They say they would have “look that up” DO NOT, of course agree with any of the answers they give… Mostly they have your name, but nothing else. They MAY know the card is either VISA or MC, or they may just Guess (50-50 chance). Keep the guy on the line as long as you can. Engage with him/her. They need to close a deal in just a few minutes. If they donʻt close they arenʻt making money. Usually they just hang up. Some times they get really gnarly. I get more gnarly than they do. Usually it involves really graphic, physical stuff with their Mother. (apparently that is not a polite thing to talk about in India)

Took me a minute. I was focused on the man and not the work sign. I so wish I could call them and waste their time!

Can’t stand it when someone calls me and chews into the phone while talking.
