A Burn As Old As Time

This is a story my dad told me about how he deals with live scam calls, particularly foreign scammers.

Scammer:
“Hello, my name is [Scammer], and I work at [Credit Card Company]. I notice you have an issue with your credit card; if you could just send me your credit card number and PIN–”

Dad:
“Your mom must be so proud that you scam people for a living.”

Scammer:
“WHY YOU– DON’T YOU DARE INSULT MY MOTHER! I’M GONNA KILL YOU! DON’T EVER INSULT MY MOTHER AGAIN!” *Click*

And the moral is: “Yo Mama” burns are the best defense against scammers. Who knew?
