27 People Share Their Funniest Responses To Scam Callers

I’m not sure why it happens, but sometimes my phone number wins the worst lottery and is blown up with scam calls nonstop for about two months.

Without a doubt, the sudden surge is because I was dumb enough to write down my number somewhere sketchy because I thought I could win a free car in the mall or something. I know I probably deserve them, but it doesn’t make it any less annoying. 

Having a funny response ready for when you get a scam call is a level of preparedness I never thought of, but it’s really the best way to give you a laugh and annoy some of these really bad people.

People on Twitter started sharing all of their best responses to scam calls and they’re honestly pretty hilarious. If it freaks you out to confront someone like this, you can definitely enjoy it through these people’s tales.
