I got a call from the Internal Revenue Service today..fake of course...They gave the number to call...I said I was calling the FBI instead.! LOL
I am a senior...and have had a wide variety of scams tried on me over the years...They were disappointed. I always tell them I am calling the Feds and reporting them.
If you search youtube for something like “put telemarketers on hold”, there are lots of choices. I sometimes play https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLzUPz2-aD4 for telemarketers. I have no idea about its effectiveness, but it amuses me. There’s typical telemarketing music, then “Please hold. A family representative will be with you shortly.” More music... “Please continue to hold. Your telemarketing b*** s*** is very important to us.” More music... “Why not get a real job? Visit www. findarealjob.com.” More music... Etc.
