Phone scammer guy tried to call me several times today so I ended up using my phone's call screening feature to mess with them

On the note of cellphones

I really don't like how some of the telcos here are switching to a callback system where instead of putting you on hold, they schedule a callback that is several days into the future

Context: there's this scam that someone claims to be from one of the major cell companies, telling you of some great deal.

They then tell you to order a phone and then have it sent back to a warehouse they control for some made up reason, where they end up stealing that phone to sell overseas.

I realized the con before they had a chance to try to make me "return" the device to them, but now I have to deal with my cell company's terrible return process instead. How fun.

As soon as I get that mess sorted out I am gonna look around for a new carrier. What an awful experience.

Had the courier return to sender, so all I'll need to do is tell the CS rep that I did that so they don't need to send me a return label or anything
