unless you have a good receiver in you phone, they usually don't pick up on "ambient noise" very well. Something indirect, like a car horn, might not be as loud as you imagine it to be. Try having someone calling you from their car and ask them to honk the horn; it's not THAT loud.

We should have a competition to see who can keep a rep on the phone for the longest period of time.

I think he means more like getting an air horn and blasting it directly into the receiver. But lololol at OP.

What you could do is set your computer's sound input from Microphone to Stereo Mix, pump up the volume and then proceed to send some very annoying sound (Day[9] scream, Trololololol guy or the scream that plays at the end of the second level of those maze scare games).



Imo, play 1a2a3a vod, would be perfect! "Random screaming in korean" "WARARHAHHAHGHGHGHGHGHGHGH"

Um for the giggles I tried the stuff they were trying to install on my computer. It's just this generic remote desktop thing. I proceeded to troll the tech support guy to a bloody rage and deleted all the junk they installed on my computer.

Lol well played sir. Even better @R1CH.
SC is like sex. You should play often, but never too hard. And you should only try hard when it matters.

Lol I guess I can consider myself lucky for never having received some kind of scam attempt. I'm kind of curious to what they would try to do after remoting into your machine. Install some other malicious software? Would be funny if they were careless and you were able to remote into their machine.

Funny story. I never bother with these telemarketing guys, all I do is say "He/She is not home" or "No thank you". I hate when I get called during a SC2 game...

We used to get a lot of calls around lunch time, apparently my dad entered our number in one too many place.

So I started taking the calls and I either make up stories about problems I have, something like alcoholism, and keep on whining about it until they hang up. Or I troll them in regards to what they try to sell, like telling the guy from the lottery that I won the lottery last week and I never need money again, or telling the guy from the telephone company that I love the colors of their competitors logo (the pink T from telecom), that's why I stay there, etc. It's usualy pretty hard to come up with good stuff on the fly though.
