Martijin Engelbregt, who apparently has not registered with the National Do Not Call Registry yet, has developed a counter script for consumers wishing not to have their dinners interupted by newspaper subscription calls. According to Mr. Engelbregt “Telemarketers make use of a telescript - a guideline for a telephone conversation. This script creates an imbalance in the conversation between the marketer and the consumer. It is this imbalance, most of all, that makes telemarketing successful. The EGBG Counterscript attempts to redress that balance.” It’s a good way to throw off a salesperson calling you and pretending to be your buddy if you ask me. Amuse yourself and enjoy.
