Tia Carmen: Hello? Hello? Conchita? Is that you? Tia Carmen: How have you been?! It's been a long time! I was worried! Mara called yesterday and said you weren't feeling well, and that maybe it was something you ate at you nephew Miguel's house. Tia Carmen: I'm doing ok, I went to Dr. Garcia two days ago because I felt a little pain in my left foot every time I reached into the kitchen cabinet to get salt. Tia Carmen: But now - gracias a dios - I think it's gone, and all I did was say a little prayer. Have you spoken to Consuelo? Tia Carmen: Hello? Hello? Is anyone there? Telemarketer: Remind me never to call this number again.

My brother in law is a master at playing around with the telemarketers! He can keep them going for quite a while!He either strings them along like this, or he sidetracks them on every question or statement they make!

Had a call the other day, not sure if it was a scam or telemarketer. They asked bf if we wanted to switch from our present power company (there are 3 in the area) and my bf responded with “Sure, I just need your SSI and mother’s maiden name.” They hung up for some reason. :)

Article in the paper this AM noted that they are hitting the cell phones now. dumping your land line won’t insure freedom from them.Auto-dial is equal opportunity.

It is hard to be civil when you are being called by someone you don’t know selling you something you don’t want, and having to tell them no several times. I just answer the phone and then hang up immediately.
