I do something similar with calls from Credit Card Services when they say something like “this is your second and final warning”.
I start to “cry” and say that my husband will beat me if there’s a problem with our credit cards. Crying frantically, “He’ll lose his job because of his security clearance.” “What am I gonna do?!? What am I gonna do?!?” Then I hear CLICK.
Still... the calls continue.
Too funny.
