why pay when you can do it for free just as easily?

This is a good thing in away..."Please hold on one minute while i verify your telephone...Hmmm, It appears that this telephone # does not belong to the company you claim to be from. I don't know who you are, so I can't answer any of your questions. I will report this call to the police."
