I usually just make those heavy with lots of folded paper. I like your idea of using those hole punch things because when they open it, it would make a really big mess for them lol.

what i do is when the telimaketer calls i say "hang on my mom (or dad depending on my mood) really wants to order that she (or he) will be with you in a sec.... then i just leave the phone (with the maketer on the other end) and go laugh somewhere....
also if you get a call and when you answer it there is no one on the other line it is a telimarketer companys server callign to see if you answer or not if you answer that means that that is a time you are home and the next day at that time you get a call with a telimaketer on the other line. what you do is when you get that call with no one on the lie tap # about 10 times. this confuses the server (becuase in its source code there is no varitable for #) and the server simply shuts down. it does massave damege to the companys server system and the phone calls end...

I'm glad I'm not the only one that does that. But how do we get the word out to everyone to do the same thing? You figure if there is a mass mailing back to the companies that maybe they would get a clue or at least cost them some money.

Why should you get in trouble for this? Considering I never asked them to send me anything in the first place. They are the ones "tresspassing" if you ask me.

B) If I'm feeling rambunctious and spiteful (and have the time), I answer and lead them on up until POS and then I say "Sorry, not interested!"
