HOW TO SPOT A TELEMARKETING SCAM:

funny cartoon of man getting a telemarketing phone call as he's trying to bathe; the phone has lips squawking
 
They suddenly hang up when you distractedly shout "FBI" in response to a "Jeopardy" question on the TV.
 
They identify themselves as the telemarketers who ripped you off previously and offer to return your money for an additional fee.
 
They start off with friendly small talk like, "Hi, Mrs. Jones, how is your money today?"

SONGS FOR A SCAMMING PLANET
 
  “The Royal Scam” – Steely Dan, from the album The Royal Scam

They are paid in gold
Just to babble in the back room...
See the glory Of the royal scam

REVIEW: In addition to the monster title track, The Royal Scam includes the excellent "Kid Charlemagne" and the epic "Don't Take Me Alive," as well as great lesser-known tracks like "The Caves of Altamira," "Green Earrings" and "Sign in Stranger." This is no royal scam—it's a royal jewel!
