Most calls I answer in Japanese. But for those really obnoxious call from the [insert name here] Pharmacy I answer âFederal Bureau of Investigation, Fraud Division. Please hold for the next available agent.â
Back before we had caller IDâŚ.so we had no idea who was calling until they identified themselvesâŚ..my husband would sometimes answer the phone, âMabelâs whorehouse, where the customer always comes firstââŚ.All I could do was pray it wasnât my bossâŚ.
whatâs that in earlâs hand? not the one with the telephone, the other one. i thought they were extinct. wow desk phone, newspaper â i feel transported back in time :)
I use the FBI all of the time. If they donât donât speak English very well, I just go on and on and tell them the call is being taped and start grilling them about why they called. I ask a LOT of questions until they just hang up. I ask âhow well did you know the victim? When was the last time you saw him alive? Where were you between 4 PM and 10 PM last Fridayâ
Going to try the whorehouse one now. And, the âYouâre on the airâ one.
I may be full of the devil and may greet him in person one day, but since Iâve gotten caller ID, I get more fun out of it than itâs legal to have. Presently, Iâm a âharried producerâ at âRock 95â asking caller #5 âwhatâs the secret singer is on todayâs contest? GO!â And the fun begins. I may be 81 now, but thatâs no sign Iâm MATURE !!
If telemarketers ask if you can hear them, DONâT SAY YES! It could be the scam where they record you and use it as confirmation for something theyâre selling.
Lately Iâve been getting a robocall where they claim to be from my credit card company and then tell me not to worry because thereâs nothing wrong with my account, at which point I hang up because I havenât had a credit card in over 7 years.

That is the best method since Seinfeldâs method.
Jerry: Can I have your number so we can talk about this later?
Caller: Weâre not allowed to do that.
Jerry: You donât want me to call you at your home?
Caller: No.
Jerry: Now, you know how I feel.
