its always a robocall these days. I miss when an actual person had to go through the effort of making the calls so you could fuck with them.

yes that's also lame.

actually the first time I got this one I thought "Oh that's cool at least it's a real person telling me this". Except it always starts with the same first couple words cut off so ... yeah obviously just a recording :(

My favorite instance of fucking with a scammer was reenacting this Calvin and Hobbes comic:

I used to love those ones where some asshole calls like he's from Microsoft trying to tell me he's monitoring my shit and I have a virus. So I always liked to play along and fuck up all his instructions he was giving me to get him my IP address, etc... I got one guy so mad he cussed me out for like 10 minutes. That was a great day.
