Though I can't imagine that anyone actually enjoys them.....
Lately I've been getting 10-20 calls per day on my cell from a car warranty scam. The calls always come from different out of state numbers. I usually don't answer calls from numbers I don't recognize and these callers never left messages, so after searching the numbers online and finding out it was a scam, I decided to answer one last week...
Here is our conversation...
Scammer - Sir I'm calling because your car warranty is about to expire.
Me - (knowing that I never had a warranty on the car I have now) - Really?? That's not good... Can you help me out? I drive a 2008 Porsche 911 Turbo(actually I drive a 2004 Volvo)
Scammer - Yes sir, I have all your vehicle info on my screen right now and I can definitely offer you a new extended warranty.
Me - Oh, you have all my vehicle info on your screen?
Scammer - Yes I do.
Me - So you know that I've been in 4 major accidents with that (fictitious) car?
Scammer - Yes, I see that.
Me - And you can still offer me a warranty?
Scammer - Of course, I just need to get your payment info and we'll be all set.
Me - No problem, my checking account number is 1 2 GO F##K YOURSELF YOU ********* SCAMMER. I DON'T OWN A PORSCHE AND IF I HAD A 2008 IT WOULD STILL HAVE THE FACTORY WARRANTY!!!! YOU'RE NOT EVEN A PROFICIENT LIAR!!!!
Keep in mind this guy asked for my payment info without even going over what this "warranty" would cover..... How stupid do they think people are??
