Coca-Cola seems to want me to win the lottery. All I need to give them is my credit card number, and they'll transfer the money directly into the account!

I had this e-mail a while ago, and it is long gone now.

I laughed hard at what was required. They didnt even try and sneek in the address. Just the full name and address will do.

I got a phone call on my cell phone and they asked me to buy something. I told them very politely to take me off their list. The guy said he would. I get a phone call the next day from the same company. I told them these words, "You ****ing ****ers should have learned to take me off your ****ing retarded list." That company never called me again.

The only way you get rid of them is if you are mean. I got one the other day and I asked if him if he really thought I would buy it. He said it is a great product. I said I bet you don't even have one. The guy said he did. I said your lying just made me not want to buy this product. He started begging and then I said **** you!

Something a guy did in class, we were in the weight room and everyday he kept getting a phone call by telemarketers. (Btw we were in ROTC but because the program was undeveloped we in ROTC II just sat in the weight room most of the time doing nothing)

Anyway, when he got a call he started to talk like an Arab guy...meh, then again, only funny if you could have seen it. But this does remind me of a video ;)

Ooh, I got another one...

FROM MR. ABDEL ZINDA,
BILL AND EXCHANGE MANAGER,
AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK
OUAGADOUGOU,
BURKINA FASO.

Greetings and compliments of the season,

I am making this proposal to you based on my conviction that you will be capable of championing this business cause.

In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of $10.6m US dollars (Ten Million Six hundred Thousand US Dollars) in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer, late Mr. Abdul Rehman Afzal an Afghani who died along with his entire family in an American bomb attack on the city of Kandahar, Afghanistan in the year 2003.

Apparently he has no relatives, and he decided I was cool enough to have this money.

We just need your bank account number and secret pin number, along with your Social Security to transfer all the money to you, correct? XD

My house number is on that list. By law, if you tell a company to stop contacting you, they have to or you can sue for harrassment.

Right, but if you tell a company to put you on there do not call list, and then hang up, they don't have to because they need your information to do it. Also, it only puts you on the list for that company

They don't need any information. Obviously, they have your phone number and name so they just take you off the list. You will still get telemarketers from other places but at least not from the same company.

What you do is you tell them that you are the master of the household, ask for the details, and when they ask for credit card numbers, tell them you've gone to get the card, and leave them on hold until they hang up.
