Does pretending you can't hear them work? Wouldn't they call back?

Omg we were getting calls from them about 4-8 times a DAY! Was driving us nuts... I'd just pick it up, and then hang up right away... were down to about 1-3 calls a day now..

Just tell them you are dead. It really does work.

HAHA...wait..i have a good one.

ask if they know DT and when they ask who DT is says "Dial Tone' and hang up LOL

MickeyFan · 03-27-2008, 12:49 AM

The DT thing is funny. We use to get about 5 calls a day. I started telling them when i had money they would get paid, and untill then stop calling.
