So I get 1-3 calls per day from company claiming to be providing me with the state governments energy rebate deals on hot water replacement..
Normally I hang up or tell them to "fuck off" as I am on "do not call" register..
This time I was nice, acted really interested, went through his spiel and got through to him asking me for address details, I stopped him there and asked from where he was calling.. They gave me "Smart Australian Services", sigh, can't report them (well did but little point) as that company was deregistered three years ago..
Almost want to just give fake address each time so they send someone out and waste their time, but then that bothers someone else.. mmm, maybe give them Heidelberg police stations address?

@joele - any vacant lots nearby you could send 'em to?
Greedy fuckers cannot self-regulate.

yes actually, some recently demolished ones.. Certainly a good option as if they look on google maps they will see the old house there.
