I do the same, occasionally. I especially like messing with the one that calls about donating to the police fund. I ask them a lot of questions about where the money goes and never get a straight answer. At the end I tell them that there is a police officer who lives across the street and that if I give him money then I know 100% of my money goes to the police. I don't think I'm very popular with those people.
I do, however, donate money to the police by sending it with the police officer friend of my neighbor. 100% donated to the police!!!

Hope you state first with handing the cash: "This not a bribe, officially and otherwise."
I used to say, "I'm glad you called. Do you sell anything that gets blood out of curtains?", but I've mellowed, so now I ask, "Do you sell anything that gets snot out of oatmeal?" Pretty much a tie for the shortest conversation.

I got one of those calls from “Weendows” a couple of nights ago telling me that there was a problem with my computer. I told the guy that I didn’t have “Weendows”. I told him that I developed my own OS called Digitally Operated Open Reiteration System. I call it DOORS. I explained that it uses a special processor that I built called Wide Universal Design. I told him that I simply called it a WUD chip. I further explained that I could open several DOORS at once due to a graphic device called High Intensity Neutron Graphic Engine and that I have three of them installed. I told him that I refer to them as HINGES. They guy hung up on me!

LOL!!! I just tell him I want to donate and to put it into one of the funds. He chooses where to put it. Next time I see him I'll have to ask him if the first time I donated if he thought I was offering him a bribe. I'm sure he will get a good laugh out of it.

ROTFLMAO!!!! I love it!!! I need to print this out and use it the next one I get.
Once I got a call about Windows and I told them I didn't have Windows that I had a Mac. He said that wasn't a problem he could still fix my computer. I called him an idiot and hung up.

I also used to string them along for as long as possible but I now have a much shorter routine, at least for male scammers. I simply ask them why their kind have such small penises. It evokes some interesting responses.
I played with a caller once. After a while he asked me: "Are you fu$(ing with me?" I replied that I was, he growled under his breath and hung up. We only get calls about extended warranties now, and they are robocalls, so I just hang up.
