    I keep getting calls from home improvement scam artists. I usually get mad and hang up, but the other day I decided to have a little fun.  Listen in:  http://youtu.be/5pjHEfS2Qgc

    I get a few of these types of calls a week. You sound like you had his goat.

    And its interesting how the supposed "employee" could not give a call back number. That is complete BS. Any legit business is going to have a phone number for people to call back.

    That youtube audio is pretty funny! You had him going for almost 11 minutes! I don't have the patience for that, but good on you for your efforts!  I love how he doesn't act surprised that you don't seem to have heard of any place in Southern California!  I live in that area so I'll be sure to be on the alert for these idiots!

    I would love to string somebody along with the calls that I get here. But I doubt I could keep a straight face.

    may not be the same remodeling outfit, but I try to tie them a little as well - I now tell them that I would like a dog house. They don't catch on and call their supervisor...

    They call me several times a day. I block each number but they always change it. Once you tell them to remove your name, they hang up and use a different number later.

    BTW, the calls I'm getting are obviously from India.

    Yep, same here. Probably only be able to keep a straight face for no more than a few minutes before busting up in laughter at those lame nitwits!!!
