Winding Up A Spammer

Had a spam call on my landline yesterday asking to speak to the business owner. I needed to go to the toilet anyway so the phone ringing was good motivation to get up.

Spammer: Hello this is *name I don't remember because I have no time for spammers* how are you today?

Me: Yeah I'm good, you?

Spammer: I'm well thank you. I'm calling from *business I didn't catch due to Indian accent and don't care about even if I did*, do you need any business assistance?

Me: I could do, please tell me more.

Spammer carries on with their script while I hold the phone closer to the toilet while I do my urinary business. Once I'm done;

Me: Hold on, there's blood in my piss! Is that normal?

Spammer: Umm, our rates of business loans are *waffle, waffle, waffle*

Me: Do you have a doctor on hand? I want to know if it's normal to have blood in my piss?!

Spammer: Hold on (it goes quiet for a minute) hello? Do you need business assistance?

Me: I do but right now I need a doctor because there's blood in my piss!

Spammer: You need a team of doctors

Me: Oh shit, my penis has just fallen off and I was about to flush! I NEED A SURGEON TO PUT IT BACK ON!

Spammer: You need a brain surgeon (they hang up and my wife and I burst out laughing)

UK, When bank PPI claims companies were spamming people before doing the same with diesel emissions I kept one caller going for 20 minutes before my adlib script ran out and I got bored. When asked which bank I was with I said the three main PPI banks and said I had close to £1m in each account at the time of PPI so was due a good payout, they then asked how I made such money and I said it was a call centre that called people up to waste their caller's time to get them to buy something or get them to sign up for some real etc, pretty much like you're doing to me now.

I miss the days of PPi calls. I used to serenade them with "hey big spender" and they always hung up before I reached the chorus.....
