   Just got a robocall on the business line. "We have been trying to reach
you. This is your last opportunity to lower your credit card interest rates.
Press 1 to lower your rates. Press 2 to cancel the offer."

   I press '1'.

   Male answers, "card services."

   Me: "What card do you represent?"

   Him: "We represent VISA and MasterCard."

   Me: "Yes. But which issuer?

   Him: click.

   Me: :-)

   Not all the crooks in the financial industries are at the top and skimming
millions of dollars.
