Never reply to their questions with a "yes"! It can be recorded and used to indicate you said "yes" to something they could sell to you.
I've heard that just answering lets them know your number is a working number and may result in more calls.
I never answer, just keep blocking and reporting numbers. It works eventually .
If I’m outside I will tell them that I’m in the middle of a holdup, then I shout out “ I told you not to move “ then I fire a couple of pistol rounds off while holding the pistol close to the phone. No body is ever on the phone when I get back to ask them what they want.
Was that you that shot twice at McGee Creek boat ramp?
I always answer Hello, this is the Kay County Sheriffs office, what can we help you with.
After a brief silence, I repeat it. Half way through, they hang up.
It’s amazing that my scammer calls have gone almost to zero with help of AT&T’s Active Armor we get for free by being a customer.
The occasional call gets through, so that’s when I do the Sheriffs office speil.
Lately i just answer calls and if its a recording wait until the real person gets on. Then when the Arabic speaking guy name Mike or Tom etc. gets on I then ask them to Press 1 for English or 2 for f?!K @ff and hang up
