I don't like cold calling touts calling me at 10am on Sunday morning.

Pricks

[TTinCO]

Hopefully he'll see the # (if it stays up).

Note to mods-I would have "asked for permission" before posting the #, but don't have any mods on IM.

Hey Jake Thompson, do you have a boiler room operating out of Florida?

I'm 41-3 on my 10000 star Game's of the Year.

If you get a call from a tout just tell them that you only bet $5 a game. My buddy used to get calls all the time from touts ( must of got on some list some how)and when he told one that, the guy hung up on him and never called back. Word must have got around because he never gets calls anymore!!

 

[TTinCO]

Jake, do you have people working phones in Florida? (Second attempt)

 

[JakeT.]

Me and my buddy Jim Feist have people working everywhere. People like the fact that we hit 95% on underdogs this season.

 

[TTinCO]

Jake, I've read enough about your winning %age (or lack thereof....).

I guess that's a maybe/yes.

 

[winkyduck]

TT - you still got an e-mail addy for me?

if so - fire me one and let's "talk" more that way.

if you have AOL IM send it along, too.

sounds like this could be fun!

 

[JakeT.]

Getting a hint of sarcasm?

If you call them collect, you can't block your number. You would have to be nuts to give these guys your number.

10 cents a minute max shouldn't break you high rollers.

 

[TTinCO]

Kosar, given that-I guess that a pay phone is the best option.

BTW, ask for Richard A. Klein.

 

[kosar]

Yeah, a pay phone. But I really don't think many people are going to leave their house to go to the local 'sip 'n' go' and use their payphone to harass these guys. Just block the number and spend the 10cents that it will take before they hang up on you. Seriously.

I'm with ya man. It's rare that you can get the number of these guys and they should definitely get a little of what they're givin'.

 

[TTinCO]

I'll just keep the # in my billfold & wait until I'm on my way home from a late night-which is even later 2 time zones away.

I'll get a prepaid phone card & go payphone crazy.

LOL, Seems like a fun thing to do but I just can't see myself wasting the time nor do I want to talk to the guy!

I have had some call me and always ask them if they want me to come work for them and I give them my picks, this really pisses them off!

 

[WildBill]

Ask them for a business license # and a number to check it with their state's attorney general. Tell them you work for a local DA's office and you have heard horror stories about these types of services so you are just going to call in and see what they say about you. If clean you will buy. 95% of the time you won't even finish your explanation before the phone goes click and they quickly get you off their call lists. I used to get 5 different calls before a MNF game, after using that method a couple times I never got called again.

 

[Gargoyle]

Usually if I want to block my number, I call one of those 10-10-811 long distant numbers and then dial the number. If your cell phone has caller id, try it first on yourself. Works pretty good.

I got another voice message from the tout "George Wilson"...he sounds like he's about 85 yrs old (Yesterday it was someone else calling on his behalf)

Showed up as a private # this time.

If anyone cares, he likes the Rockies (at least for the people he calls in this part of the country).
