Recently my go to trick is to hold the phone up to my son who's non-verbal...he loves to hear people talk on the phone, guffaws, and the telemarketer doesn't know what to make of it and eventually hangs up...wastes their time and gives my son some laughs...win-win.

I played along for a second, but I didn't get to the card. When they told me that I would have a court appearance, I laughed.

I told them they better find someone who speaks English a hell of a lot better if they want me to believe that they're from the IRS.

"Excuse me?" in a heavy Indian accent.

I scream "ENGLISH, MOTHER****ER!! DO YOU SPEAK IT?? Get me someone who speaks English. If you're from the IRS, get me a ****ing American. You ****ing DOLT."

He hung up.

**** them assholes.
