ORIGINAL: cwb Anybody got the 'dealer services warranty' call for their vehicles? They call me several times a week, sometimes twice a day, like this morning. No thanks, I'm not interested. They say I'm deleted from the system. But, guess who calls again??? So now I got the tables turned - I got the # off the caller ID, and re-dialed. Over, and over, and over. Now most of the operators there ain't even answerin'. I got put through just now to some high-up. He wants to know why I'm callin' them. WHAT? Why I'M callin' YOU??? You never heard the one about name-callin' between kettles, pots, and black, have ya'??? So he said he's gonna' report me. Oh yeah? Before, or after your computer calls me again? Got any time to kill like I do? (I'm still stuck at home since my accident last year) Give 'em a call... 1 800 724 9586 When they answer, tell them year, make, model, mileage, whether or not you're keepin' your car, if you're the original owner, and if there's any problems with the car now. Tell them you want employee pricing too. I've heard it so many times, I got it down pat. Try not to puke when they say they're gonna' report ya'... I found out what list ya get on when ya' go for the do not call list too - the spam list. Today they called me again. I punched '1', to talk to a rep, and the call was garbled. The put me in the do not call prompt. Then I started the call routine, like I did Friday. On the first call, I didn't get through. THEY PUT MY # ON THE BLOCKED # LIST!!! So I brought up my fax that's integrated into my computer, put in their #, and entered 9,999 repetitions of the fax.

I attached a movie file to the fax, to make sure each of the 9,999 faxes was plenty long. It was The Godfather, with an offer they couldn't refuse - a 3.75 G file!!! They have not called since. IT WORKED!

These auto warranty guys are callin' me again, from a different number. And they got wise to my fax machine gettin' set to fax them 9,999 times with the same fax. So I just converted a picture of a vette to a text file. Comes out to about 134 pages of jibberish. DON'T TRY IT ON YOUR OWN COMPUTER, UNLESS YOU GOT 2 GIGS OF RAM OR MORE!!! Hey telemarketer... check out this vette I'm faxin' to ya' Their new number, if you wanna' tie 'em up, is 1 213 710 8110 (digital is like a local call)...
