A bit of fun with a solictor call

[+ purplekow]

The phone rang and as I was on call, even though the ID phone number was unfamiliar, I needed to answer it. After I said hello, a rather sexy deep male voice said: "Man, you are harder to reach than rocks on Mars."

 

It was clear this was not a business related callI and as I had never heard that expression, I went along with it and said" "Well my rocks are not that difficult to reach and you might find some hardness in the area. By the way I have no idea who you are"

 

He replied in that deep sexy tone that he was calling for the Police Benefit Association.

 

This is a scam that has been around for a very long time but instead of hanging up I replied: "Well I would love to give something to a deserving police officer." "I do not have much but I would love to give a police officer everything I got"

A bit of silence and then I said: "What about you? Would you like to take what I have to give? You sound as though you might enjoy it and from the sound of your voice, I would enjoy giving it to you."

 

Unfortunately, at that point he hung up. But I have to admit it was much more fun than just hanging up on the solicitor.

I believe I will try it again, especially if the caller has a deep sexy voice as this guy did.

Anyone else had some fun with a phone solicitation?
