Thread Name: How Do You Handle Telemarketers?
Subject: RE: How Do You Handle Telemarketers?
I ask them if they've accepted Jesus Christ as their personal saviour... That tends to get them off the phone but quick... if that doesn't work, I tell them that I've just wet myself... Then I ask them if they'd like to come over and 'change' me....

Seriously... tell them to stop calling and to take you off their phone list.. if they call back in 6 months, you have legal precident on your side for harrasment... I know of at least one person who used this method and ended up with a 'huge cash settlement'... and well, now she PRAYS for telemarketers to KEEP calling!
