Anyone wanna bet that someone's trying to figure out how to hack into that nice active database of valid phone numbers?

Talk about the holy grail...

My favorite ploy with them these days is to ask where their information came from. The usual "Our records show that you may be paying..." gets a "What records?" from me. I can usually string 'em along for several minutes until they get flustered enough to leave.

Making them waste valuable time puts a smile on my face...

And I'll probably sign up for this registry, too. As soon as the initial furor dies down.
