Now this puts in formal form something I have done off and on for years now (though with much less frequency due to the wonderful Do Not Call List registries in the US) .When you get a call from a telemarketer, run through this counter-script designed to beffudle the telemarketer and give YOU the upper-hand. Best thing is it is short enough to print out and keep by a phone for use when needed.

 

Cheers!
