Instar is on a distinguished road
Default OT Telemarketers

I was being harassed by Cloud Visa (4 calls in 2 days even after I said "Not interested"). So I gave in....


And gave them fake info. Apparently, all their data in the database was wrong. I happily provided the "correct" data (I live close to the Whitehouse, 1400 PA ave).
I hope they stop calling, I even had a fake phone number to give.

I can see how what I did was wrong, but come on, they were breaking the law! Sure, they will waste their money on a completely nonexistant person, but my time is more valuable than to have it wasted by annoying as hell telemarketers. I just wanted it to stop.
Anyhow, I guess even with fake data I can get approved for a visa card.
