I don't want to give scammers the satisfaction of me even picking up.
I do! I say hello and then put the phone on the table and wash some dishes at them until they hang up.
Annoying them and wasting their time is my gift to society.
I get a particular spam call at least once a day. I recently tried answering, setting my phone under a pot, and banging the fuck out of it with a spoon. Modern phones must suppress sudden loud sounds though because all I got was, “I think you’re breaking up, is anyone there?” Highly disappointing.
Play the SIT intercept sound to them.
You know.. the beeps with the message that says the line is no longer in service, etc.
Is they're using an automated dialer, it'll recognize the beeps, and odds are your number will be automatically purged from their list for a while.
