I don’t know about you, but I was getting at least 2 calls a day on my mobile phone from this extended auto warranty telemarketing outfit. It is a recorded message, and if you try to call back, you usually get a recording or no answer.
Well, some enterprising people have figured out how to access this company’s voicemail and fill up the inboxes with messages. If you have been harassed by this company, as I have, you might consider looking at the following for advice on how you can give the company a little of its own medicine.
To be clear, I’m not advocating doing anything illegal or destroying existing voicemail messages, or using the company’s information for any illicit purpose. However, I see no harm in leaving the company voicemails on its own system and waste their time the way they waste ours.
You can access info about the company’s phone number and how to leave voicemail here.
Also, here’s a hilarious (at least to me) video of a guy who is messing with a telemarketer from this venal organization:
