I was reading my friends' older blog entries.
And I came across this.....
8 Ways to Scare a Telemarketer!
1) Ask him to talk v-e-r-y sloooooowly, becoz u want to write down every word he says.
2) When he introduces himself (eg "Sammy"), immediately say, "Wah piang eh! Sammy! Long time no see, man! How are you! Are you still living in tt old place?" Tis shld stun Sammy for a while, as he scrambles to rem where he might know u frm.
3) After he finishes his marketing spiel, tell him he must marry u 1st b4 u sign on.
4) If he says he's Tan Ah Seng frm ABC Pte Ltd, ask him to spell his name. Then ask him to spell the company name. Then ask him where it's located. Continue asking him personal questions or questions abt the company for as long as u feel like it.
5) Insist the caller is actually ur fren Benny, playing a joke. "Eh, Benny, dun like tt leh! Stop playing the fool! Seriously, Benny, how's ur mom? Is she out of the hosp yet?" etc etc.
6) After he finishes his pitch, say in a very creepy voice, "Thank u for calling me. I dun have many frens.. do u wan to be my fren?"
7) If he asks, "How r u?" Tell him! "Wah laum got so many probs. My fish all died, then my mother & father had tis big argument until the neighbors called the police, & then lagi worse, dun know y, but my crotch was itching the whole day, so i went to the clinic & then... " Continue til he hangs up.
8) Tell him u're bz @ the moment, & ask him for his home no so u can call him back. He'll try to give his office no, but insist on his hm no. When he says he can't give his hm no, ask him, "U dun wan some farnie stranger calling u up @ hm & disturbing u, izzit?"
Personally, I like the no. 8. Haha... maybe I should try that when I meet one.
LOL
