Well played Monica. Well Played!!
So, if you read the post earlier, about my telemarketer phone call with Monica I boasted that I WON!!
Well, I DIDN’T WIN
I made Monica hang up on me. I had so much fun! I was looking forward to my next call!!
IT HAS BACKFIRED BIG TIME
That, my friends has back fired. I am certain that Monica has distributed my name and phone number to every single telemarketer she knows. 2 days of phone calls. The green dot means 
MULTIPLE calls from the same number. Since the towns are close to me, I of course have to answer.
This isn’t as fun as the first round.
Since they are asking for me in particular, I say, “wrong number, I sure hope you find her!”
That hasn’t worked either.
I did register on the National DO NOT Call list. I sure hope that kicks in soon.
I’ve started using these rules:
Don’t Answer Unknown Numbers
Ignoring unwanted or unfamiliar calls is the best way to get them to stop. Once you answer a robo-call or telemarketing call, you’ve now confirmed that your number is operational, opening yourself up to receiving many more calls in the future.
A good rule of thumb to use is whether a caller leaves a voicemail. Someone who wants to speak with you will leave you a message; solicitors won’t. Even if you happen to miss a call you needed to answer, calling back after checking your voicemail is simple.
In the meantime.
Monica, my hat is off to you! Well played!! Well played indeed.

This is a good one…………………..ROFLMAO
register on the National DO NOT Call list. THEY ARE NOT WORTH THE TIME TO FILL IN THE FORM.
As they say you had your fun now you pay for it. Before I got call blocker I had so many of those calls. And I still get them but most hang up when it says leave a message. A few of them are THEY WANT TO HELP ME PAY OFF STUDENT LOANS. I am 70+ no loans. Then a lot are the medicare calls. DELETE DELETE my favorite thing to do on the phone
And I have to agree Monica passed your number around……………………. LOL LOL

Winding up on every spam list would be the ultimate phone nightmare!! Hope Monica doesn’t hold grudges.

This is too funny loves reading these posts. The National Do Not Call Registry kicks in after 30 days but we still get a few calls well more than a few.
