This "person" identified herself as Elizabeth Moore and asked to speak
to the business owner about a business growth opportunity. When I didn't
answer immediately, it said Hello! Are you still there? I replied "what
company are you with?" and it said Elizabeth Moore, Oh! I'm sorry to hear
that and hung up on me. It was a robot. When the call comes in you
hear a "BLOOP" sound and that is a good indicator it will be a robot.
Ask them who the president of the US is or what's the weather in your
area? It will confuse it and the truth will come out and it will get
flustered.
Yay! I was on the phone with a customer when these Twinkies called, and so didn't interrupt. Came here to find out it was absolutely the right move to make!
I like it when I ask if it's a real person and Elizabeth (or Joe, the male bot) says "Yes! Why do you ask?" and no matter what you reply it laughs. then I say no and they hang up. What idiot falls for this stuff?
