Facebook Marketplace, the item is a specialised part for a car that only fits one particular version, so normally a buyer would confirm it was the correct fit
Bear in mind also both my name and location were visible to the “buyer”…
 
@dmherrick
I said you know about the accident? You know all the details? so you know what happened? So you’ll understand that you’re not able to speak with Mark while he’s in his current state then… they hung up on me!
 
@somewherewithoutdanger
They’re so shocked to come across someone who’s had an accident, they don’t know what to say…. So when I tell them that “mark is laying in hospital” they have no clue what to do other than hang up
 
Whenever a double glazing company ring and talk about windows my husbands says we have some already thank you . and then he puts the phone down

I told a conservatory sales person I was really interested, and asked how they would fit it to the back of a 3rd floor flat, and if they thought the neighbours below us would mind.
 
I’m calling from your broadband provider
Ok
Your internet connection is currently being hacked by international criminals
Wow, that’s so cool
I need to make some changes to your setting to fix that
Yeah sure I hope it can be fixed as no one wants to be hacked by international criminals
Please go to your computer
Yep I’m there
Go to google
Ok
Type in team viewer
Ok sure got that
Please give me the code…
Sure so you need the team viewer code to be able to remote access my laptop, correct?
Yes
The code is d for delta, o for Oscar, I for India, l for Lima, o for Oscar, o for Oscar, k for kilo, l for Lima, i for india, k for kilo, E for echo, a for alpha…. Charlie uniform November tango???
They got very angry with me 😂 😂
 
@ubutyf, that’s brilliant. When I got a call like this I said:
Oh no. Don’t want my computer hacked or my internet switched off. Quick, what credit card details do you need? Bank details? Then pissed myself laughing and hung up the phone
 
My husband kept telling callers that were phoning to sell us conservatory blinds to phone back another time to speak to the wife as she deals with all that stuff. Well one day I answer the phone and they were like oh great Mrs stephens your husband said you deal with all the home decor so to speak to you about conservatory blinds. I was like oh did he, doesn't he realise we don't actually have a conservatory?". They hung up.
