Default OK, if you're going to try to scam me at least assume I am going to read the message.

I get calls literally every day, usually in the morning, from Indian scammers. It's fun to scream obscenities at them, or discuss sexual scenarios with them, for the ladies. I just can't understand why our government can't shut that shit down. They're in call centers in India or sometimes, Pakistan. Why can't we drone strike a few of them? That would put a stop to it, I'm sure.

I usually ask the telemarketers if they mind if I masturbate during the length of the phone call and then fake getting my rocks off in the middle of the call. Usually results in no more calls.

I get about a dozen calls per day, and they pop up with the words SPAM RISK on the screen, I let it ring 4X and it goes to automatic disconnect......

I used to mess with them for sport also but the shine has worn off that. I don't get that many on my cell but suggest friends do this: Change your default ring tone to "None" then select custom ring tones for frequent callers and a "default" ring tone for anyone else in your contacts list. Change your voice mail message to urge important callers to leave voice mail and suggest that scammers die soon, cold, and screaming in the dark.

So far this morning, I got a Social Security number scammer, and I literally JUST HAD a "we're gonna charge $ 400 for computer services to your card" scammer. A little let down today. The SS scam lady didn't answer my question about if she shaved down there and just hung up. Damn, woman, do you want to talk or not? You called me! And the computer scammer picked up the phone, I could hear Indians in the background, but no one actually answered so I could talk to them.
