A local woman received a threatening letter in the mail from a telemarketer in Texas, Local 4 reported.


Jill Beyer, of Waterford Township, said she received the letter about one week after she refused to donate money in a recent call from a telemarketer.

"He wanted a donation for the veterans' association, which the veterans don't get that much of that money. That's why I wouldn't donate to him," Beyer said.

Beyer (pictured, left) said the man refused to take no for an answer so she hung up the phone.

"I slammed the phone very hard," Beyer said.

The letter arrived postmarked from El Paso, Texas. The first line read, "Before you are rude to another telemarketer, you should keep in mind that he or she has your phone number and your address."

"It makes me nervous. Obviously he's not playing with a full deck and even my kids are nervous," Beyer said.

El Paso police are reportedly taking the threat seriously and are searching for the person who sent the letter.













Here's the letter..haha

Jill Beyer,

Before you are rude to another telemarketer, you should keep in mind that he or she has your phone number and your address.

Many of them live in your own state and most don't give a (expletive)!

So, Ms. Beyer, the next time a telemarketer calls and you don't want to be bothered, a simple "not interested" will do.

Your son or daughter or next-door neighbor's daughter could very well be a telemarketer. A handicapped, wheelchair-bound person could be a telemarketer. A biker or ex-con is more likely to be a telemarketer. You really, really shouldn't (expletive) with them!

As they say in the telemarketing industry, "Have a good day Ms. Beyer!"

The same thing happened to me years ago back when i was a senior in high school.

Like most i spent my nights out untill the early am and then slept away most of the sunlit hours of the day.

Calls from telemarketers that would wake me up always ALWAYS pissed me off.

So one day this chick called and asked to speak to Mr SoandSo [insert real last name] but she pronounced it wrong, which was the second thing to piss me off. So i said no you can't. She got all pissy with me "why not are they not there?" No you just can't talk to them i said and i don't appreciate your tone. She got furious with me "who do you think you're talking to you can't talk to me like that, blah blah blah" I was like whoah who do you think you are talking to you called me up on the phone and started talking like this. She goes i'm going to write a letter to your parents so they know how you treated me. I go good i hope you do because then i'll have proof that you actually did this! and hung up on her.

Never got the letter, i was pissed i didn't, pissed she had the nerve to talk to me like that, and pissed she woke me up during a perfectly good afternoon of sleep after a long night of partying.

People need to get a grip or find a new job they can actually handel.

LOL my momm just got hung up on by a telemarketer the other day for not donating.
that is the one thing they are never supposed to do. they could get fired for it.

i heard that one of the ways to get back at telemarketers is to just rpeat back everything they say, since they cant hang up, they get hella frustrated

When my dad would get a telemarketer on the phone, he would just say "Mr. Chais? (himself) oh sure, hes right here." and then not hang up, but just set the phone down and go on drinking a brew and watching tv or whatever else dads do.

I used to work as a telemarketer and i wrote many letters, a lot of people actually say to hold the line and just put the phone to a speaker it's great kinda like a break time wher e you don't have to do shit. you can hang up on folkz just so long as you say "thank you for your time" so if you were repeating to me i'd just do that.

but what a lot of people don't realize is that the working conditions in most call centers is pretty poor. another word for call center is plantation. They pay low wages to the people selling their time, but are generating all the value. it's a shame. most of the people working there are students and it's a part time job because you can pick your own hours, and a lot of people are just old and can't do shit else because they are retarded, in wheel chairs or just crazy. so don't fuck witha a tele marketer.

EDIT: YOU GUYS ARE ASSHOLES

the worst thing you can do when they ask for someone is say "yeah hold on" and then put a little kid on the phone.

yeah i was hella rude to people, i sold tickets to the policemans ball and told them it was a concert featuring (name rap artist here)

told one little boy that answered the phone his dads was dead ( still feel bad for that)

i'd love it when guys would answer the phone but the phone # was in a womans name, i'll pull out my deepest Barry white sexy voice and be like "Hey there....is Barbara in" when the husband would ask who it is i;d be like " Oh yeah tell her its Giovanni" all smooth and shit....i'd hear husbands put down the phone and be like "who the fuck is giovanni damn it bitch"

lol

i remember one time we were calling Antioch and the name came up as Chris Matthews..i was like..where do i know that name from
who answers the phone?

Black C from RBL....i was dyin, i didnt even have to nerve to try and sell him something, i just told him who i was and shit and told him why i was callin...i just told him never mind the call but told him i was feelin his music...he laughed and told me thanks and let me know about hitmans H20 album....
shit was funny as hell

it was even funnier when we would call the known low icome areas and ask for money to donate to the policemans ball....$75 dollars a ticket and you get a bumper sticker....lol

HOW TO MESS WITH TELEMARKETERS


If they want to loan you money, tell them you just filed for bankruptcy and you could sure use some money.


If they start out with, "How are you today?" say, "I'm so glad you asked, because no one these days seems to care, and I have all these problems. My arthritis is acting up,my eyelashes are sore, my dog just died . . . "


If they say they're John Doe from XYZ Company, ask them to spell their name. Then ask them to spell the company name. Then ask them where it is located, how long it has been in business, how many people work there, how they got into this line of work if they are married, how many kids they have, etc. Continue asking them personal questions or questions about their company for as long as necessary.


Cry out in surprise, "Judy? Is that you? Oh my God! Judy, how have you been?" Hopefully, this will give Judy a few brief moments of terror as she tries to figure out where she could know you from.


Say "No" over and over. Be sure to vary the sound of each one, and keep a rhythmic tempo, even as they are trying to speak. This is most fun if you can do it until they hang up.


If MCI calls trying to get you to sign up for the Family and Friends Plan, reply, in as sinister a voice as you can, "I don't have any friends, would you be my friend?"


Answer the phone. As soon as you realize it is a Telemarketer, set the receiver down, scream, "Oh my God!" and then hang up.


Tell the Telemarketer you are busy at the moment and ask him/her if he/she will give you his/her home phone number so you can call him/her back. When the Telemarketer explains that telemarketers cannot give out their home numbers say, "I guess you don't want anyone bothering you at home, right?" The Telemarketer will agree and you say, "Me either!" Hang up.


Ask them to repeat everything they say, several times.


*Tell them it is dinner time, but ask if they would please hold. Put them on your speaker phone while you continue to eat at your leisure. Smack your food loudly and continue with your dinner conversation.*


*Tell the Telemarketer you are on "home incarceration" and ask if they could bring you some beer. *


Ask them to fax the information to you, and make up a number.


Tell the Telemarketer, "Okay, I'll listen to you. But I should probably tell you, I'm not wearing any clothes."


Tell them you are hard of hearing and that they need to speak up . . . louder . . . louder . . .


Tell them to talk very slowly, because you want to write every single word down.
