I messed with a telemarketer for about ten minutes one time, big mistake, I swear he sent my number to every telemarketer in the country, I started getting about 40 calls a day from about 6am to 10pm, I finally just shut the ringer off on my home phone and checked messages every few daysI used to mess with them. It was fun a few times. Most just get mad cuss at me and hang up. Now I just hang up on them. Don't say anything just hang up. Then block the number. I swear at some point someone is going to give me a number that I have blocked. Damn VPNs.
