Ever been scared of a telemarketer?

[ShooterMcGavin]

OK, so this n**** just calls me on the phone looking for the Sears residence. Now, obviously that's not me, but you know how telemarketers are, they just want to know they called the right number, not the right person.

Scary sounding dude, music in the background. Why did I not hang up immediately like I do with most telemarketers?

Well because he said he was calling from the Sheriff's peacekeeping something and wanted to talk about children.

I figured maybe he wanted to tell me about a missing child in the area that I should keep an eye out for or something, but then I realized the guy was looking for a donation. It was hard to hang up, though, because the guy sounded fuckin scary. I was afraid that if I hung up, my apartment was going to be shot up by a bunch of gangsters in a drive by.

As soon as he asked me a question, I said "not today, thanks."

Then before I could hang up, he says in a very intimidating tone, "Naw hoed up jus' a minute."

Then he said something about money. I immediately hung up, and now I'm scared for my life.

I am thinking over the call in my head and I know it had to be some sort of bullshit scam. Why?

A) I doubt the Sheriff's department would ever call everyone in Oklahoma looking for donations.
B) There was loud music in the background, sounded like it was coming from a computer. They let you listen to music at work?

I'm guessing it was some random dude who opened up a phone book and started calling people asking for $12, telling them its for an organization that teaches children not to talk to strangers.

My number is on the do not call list, which means the guy was definitely not a telemarketer.


So now I'm just glad I won't be in town for the next few days :help1:

start sleeping with a man-pon to keep from gettin analy violated while your place is being ransacked.

[FuzzyRanger]

lol!! the sheriff/state troopers call my house all the damn time for money.. I made the mistake of giving them money once and now they call once a month.

and yes.. people listen to music at work.. I am right now..

[abudabit]

Maybe that's part of some work release program for cons.

[boardsofcanada]

No, I have this wonderful piece of technology called caller id. I never pick up phone unless I know the number...simple strategy.

[EveryoneHasAIDS]

My pop's a retired cop. He's told me they use outside agencies to collect donations. And these agancies end up keeping half of your donation. So the people you're talking to are not cops, they're usually degenerate ni....s. My office was being harrassed by one of these scumbags for weeks. They use all sorts of shady tactics like dropping the company president's name and shit like that.

[augiep38]

Yeah - I wouldn't worry - like has been said, these are scumbags collecting on behalf of the police , etc and they keep the bulk of the money themselves.

Think of him like the guy selling oranges out of a shopping cart at the busiest intersection in town.

My phone has caller ID capability, but when I call the number to activate it, it is always busy.

Stupid fuckin company.

[d0uche_n0zzle]

Ask the cunt where he's calling from and then go kick his ass. That'll learn him some manners.

[6DollarDrunk]

You could always get a shotgun and never let it leave your side. Maybe some claymores to protect your perimeter. Of course that might surprise the mailman.

[ShooterMcGavin]

He's black, yo.


"I'm gunna go kick Mr Harrison's ass."
.....
"Uh... Mr Harrison's a...he's a white guy right?....YEAH I'm gunna go kick his ass"

[d0uche_n0zzle]

Then tell the boy to stop calling. You need to get up in his grill and set Toby right.

[B54]

You're such a fucking pussy.

Do you just through the day thinking, 'Hey, this would make a great post on Wackbag'?

This seriously was one of the reasons I divorced my ex. God fucking forbid I get thrown in jail or I'm in a wreck and I can't call from my cell. Nice to know your girl's not getting pitched to buy some Avon while I'm freezing my ass off on the side of the road though, and thank the nice man who let you borrow his cell and shrug when no one answers.

That, sir, was a mean, harsh, and hilarious thing to say

Yea, but i will probably never even have a girlfriend, so there is nothing to really worry about. Also, i'd probably pick it up if it was a cell number...I just don't pick it up when its an 800 number or unknown. Plus, if someone i knew was in an emergency i'm sure they'd call a few times. If I was getting the same number calling again and again i'd pick it up. I rarely get any calls anyway..so i pretty much completely disregard the phone.

[Sinn Fein]

He's gonna come up to you and ask "which way is Norf" as you come out of your house one day...

[Voss's Tumor]

Or he might just come in your house, see your lucious long blonde locks and fantasize about making sweet, sweet love to your bottom

[wes mantooth]

Were you seriously scared? You should of told him to fuck off.

My current telemarketer strategy is to pick up and hang up right away without even putting the phone to my ear. I'm on the Do Not Call list, so nobody should be calling me, anyway. I've done that to the same company twice in one day, and they still called back the next day. Way to take the hint, douche ags.

[Chino Kapone]

i about killed a telemarketer. for a week solid at 8:01am i got a phone call wanting to know if i wanted discover platinum, discover gold and regular discover. it woke me up each time. i let the last one have it.

[Beeman99]

anytime one of them calls I either put the phone up to a speaker and crank the volume, put the phone in the toilet and flush, of start making the mic test sound

[mendozathejew]

I ask telemarketers for free stuff. I ask twice, and they want to hang up the phone as soon as possible.

[Chino Kapone]

sometimes i like to listen to the whole speach and act real interested. then if its a chick i just start hitting on her hardcore. asking when i can meet up with her and what she is doing later.

[mendozathejew]

the best is when you pick up the phone, and theres music playing until they are ready to talk to you. I wait for them to come on, tell them to hold and put the phone next to a playing radio. its a fun 30 seconds to fuck with them
