I never thought their offers that way, but I sure wish I did.

These days, as soon as I get a generic "may I speak to the  
person in charge of the POS processing" or "may speak to the  
onwner" ..and since they don't use my name in full, I just say,  
"Not interested"  ..and I hang up. That's a much simpler, and  
faster solution and I can get back to what I doing before that  
sooner.

Regarding exchanges where they would have you answer "YES"  
during a seemingly innocuous exchange, they could record your  
various "YES" responses and claim that you agreed to signing up  
or buying what they were selling.

No thanks.. the sooner you hang up, the better your life will  
be.
