  1. A reputable company will show their phone number as "verified"

  2. If they don't leave you a voicemail, that's probably a bad sign as to their professionalism.

I mean, if you answer every single call you get, that is your right, but you're wasting a lot of time to scammers by not taking simple precautions.

When I had more free time, I used to enjoy speaking with the scammers. They usually end up getting pissed and hanging up. I like to see how long I can keep them on the phone.

As time goes on, I become more and more ridiculous. It is amazing how much they will put up with if they think you'll fall for their nonsense.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to do that in a while. Life has become too busy.
