I received over 12 calls from these people at "Smart Business Pros" representing Visa/MasterCard/Discover and kept telling them I was not interested and to take my number off the list.
No. 13 I decided I would just play with them, so I told the young telemarketer, "YES, I am obviously interested since my name came across her desk"
SHE THEN SAID THE MAGIC WORDS - LET'S SEE IF YOU STILL QUALIFY!!!!!
Then she asked "What do you do for a Living?" - My response "Nothing I have been out of work".
"She asked for how long?" - I replied "For Nine Months Now"
"She asked which rewards do I prefer from my credit cards? THEN INSERTING SHE PREFERS DISCOVER CARD CASH BACK REWARDS.
My reply - "I DON'T GET REWARDS SINCE I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO PAY ANYTHING ON MY CREDIT CARDS AND THEY ARE NOW MAXED OUT"
She replied with "OH"
And then the best response I could ever here from her "CLICK" She was gone...
I will beg forgiveness for my little sob story later right now I am dancing for joy with no more phone calls from the NOT SO BRIGHT "Smart Business Pros" BS
So advice, play along and be dumb like a FOX, Build up their enthusiasm and drop their jaw on the floor. Be a Pain in the [***] in stead of constantly answering their phone calls.
