It will get counted. The scam is in who they call.
You were much more honest than I was. I was called several weeks ago by a machine. It may have been Rasmussen. I claimed I was a black female voting for McCain and said I was making half a million dollars a year.
Prior to that I had a live person call. I asked if I got paid for my information. I was told no and then I asked if the callee got paid. She answered yes. I said they had the wrong business model and hung up.
LOL! I’ve had the same response to market researchers, though not on political pollsters. I’ll have to try that!
Hilarious.
I would hang up on anyone who asked me how much I made.
