Call from "tech support"

[flyndung]

no legit company will call you for tech support with being asked too first

Someone on here had posted once that when you receive a call like these, hand the phone to a child and tell them that it's Santa Clause.

A friend of mine would immediately try his best to sell them something.  Normally something he made up as he went along in the conversation, and he would try to get them to invest in his "made up" company, aggressively.

Option 1: lengthy discussion on how they are sinners are will burn in hell (some of these people are very religious).

Option 2: if it's a chick ask what she looks like, start a dirty phone call with her

Option 3: ask if you have could have been infected from browsing tranny... ummm.... then start a discussion asking the guy if he likes trannies

Option 4: answer phone, say hold on one sec, put phone down, walk away

When they call (and sometimes it's a woman's voice) I show thankful appreciation, and tell them I'm turning my computer on...and I tell them it's booting up, and in the meantime, I ask them what they think about 'reincarnation'.

Then, at least because they've never heard a native English speaker say the word, they're flummoxed, and I spend as much of the rest of the day as possible explaining karma.

I don't know whether the woman was from "Tech Support" or trying to sell an investment or something like that. I've previously got several calls where an English speaking person wanted to send me some material for evaluating their venture and finally make an investment. For the first ones I answered politely, later I simply said that I won't discuss business in other languages than Finnish. But the last one worked best: The woman asked me if I'm the person she's trying to reach and I answered her in Finnish! She then asked me to speak English, instead I just kept talking Finnish. That conversation wasn't long, three sentences on each side.

Can be used against stupid tech support calls as well.

You MUST listen to his recorded calls and how clever it's done

So someone I know got a call from another stating he'd won a new truck blah blah blah. The caller did not block number. The callee's phone sported the callers number, the caller kept calling the callee's phone like 6 times.

So the callee called back the caller and the original caller answered, the original callee claimed his prize, "I want my truck I just won".

I listened to the callee call that number multiple times, claiming his prize, the guy was begging him to stop. I was scream'in...............
