When he said something in Spanish, you should have said “no habla espanol”

I keep those crooks on the phone as long as possible. I’m a hero without a cape since I am stealing away their time from stealing away from others.

If I don't know the number I don't answer, if its important they will leave a VM. Its pretty simple. Although every blue moon I will answer just to frick with them.
I had one India sounding girl call me and tell me about how my personal computer is in danger and needs to install some bullshite on windows, etc, etc. I asked her questions like I was buying into her bullshite and then said "I have a Mac and run iOS so you are full of shite" and she hung up.

That fricking simple.
Any number I don't have saved I NEVER EVER answer. If it's important, leave a voicemail and I'll call back. No voicemail, not important/spam call.
A guy at my work tells me he always answers unsaved number, which are all telemarketers and he gets mad every time he talks to one. You're the idiot who answered so shouldn't be mad.

HD one call me tonight while I was driving to the duck camp so had some time to kill. I kept her on the phone for 15 minutes until she was doing anything to get off the phone with me. Felt like a small victory despite being a total waste of 15 min

When the auto warranty scammed were active, I would ask if they cover a 1963 Pontiac Tempest.

Tell them you can't talk right now because you are taking a dump. Make loud groaning noises. Drop a large cantaloupe in the toilet from a height of about 6 feet. Ask if they are selling a toilet plunger.

They usually hang up before I get that far.

I don’t answer calls I don’t know.

If it's text, I delete it immediately. I never respond.
If I make the mistake of answering a call from an unknown number, I hang up immediately with the scammer in mid-sentence without me saying a thing.

Lol I’ve done similar stuff before. These people HATE when you waste their time.

I'll play with them for a little while, until they get pissed and hang up or I get tired of it.
The fun part is telling irritable Hajis that if they don't calm down, little elephant-head boy won't bring them anything for Ganesh Day. Usually they scream that they're Pakistani and not Indian at that point and I get to tell them all about how Mohammed was a pedo and probably got fleas from his camel when a nine-year-old child wasn't available for his pleasure.
Our office manager said I was overly cruel when I told one of them that after spending his life in a call center trying to scam people he would probably die alone in a bathroom stall and no one would miss him or even care since he never produced anything worthwhile in his entire life. (Sometimes it's fun to pull the existential thing on them just to plant the seed.)

But once in a while, just to mess with them, I'll answer "Police Department".
They hang up immediately.

When I am asked, "how are you today"
or any other opening line I say that is not funny. You must know the police are still looking for the body.
Then I hang up.

Bragging about wasting their time is worse than the actual telemarketers. At least they are trying to earn a living
