I’m never rude or cruel to a legitimate telemarketer, because I’m speaking with someone who needs to work and earn money. How desperate does someone have to be to take that job, one that’s so despised and a magnet for verbal abuse?
But, scammers are another matter.
Has anyone watched those Scammer Payback videos on YouTube? A guy disguises his voice and pretends to be a vulnerable, old lady. He keeps a scammer on the phone for a long time, often for hours, while he accesses the scammer’s computer, finds the person’s name and location, and deletes files from the scammer’s hard drive. Liam Neeson indeed!
