Scammers, Spammers and Salesmen
Complaint
Julie
Country: United States
I've read so many complaints here (some, my own) about telemarketers and the like, and there is one way to get them all to stop. Telemarketers, scammers, spammers, anyone that annoys for money, will stop if we only STOP BUYING!
How hard is it? Can't we educate everyone to NEVER purchase ANYTHING from ANYONE that contacts us? I get around 500 spam emails a day (between 2 emails) and I really don't want to change them because they are related to my business. Filters don't work and I would support the death penalty for spammers.
I NEVER buy anything from anyone that contacts me. If I'm even remotely interested in something that I notice in my spam (which is VERY rarely), I'll find the name of the company and go directly to them. If you click on the link within the note, you've just validated their existence. STOP IT!
If we don't bite at the bait, eventually they will stop fishing, and the emails and calls will stop. Something to think about.
