GDS Scam [RE-wrenches]

[Tom Simko]

 The best way I've found to deal with unwanted calls like this is listen for
a few (very few) seconds, then express complete and utter acceptance and
interest about whatever the subject matter is, then excuse yourself as you
must answer the doorbell. Tell them to hold on, you'll be right back, then
set the phone down and go about your day. Now THEY are wasting THEIR time!
