'He congratulated me and we had a laugh': Wise-guy trolls a telemarketer by convincing them that he owns the White House, putting the cherry on top of a series of hilarious phone pranks

Telemarketers are the pests of the modern world. 

Like mosquitos, they incessantly bug us, buzzing in our ears and leaving messages about our extended car warranty or, worse–buying our homes for a below-value cash offer! Great! Well, this wise guy in our next story figured out a hilarious way to combat the hovering telemarketers that were swarming his phone: Trolling. 

Most of us have enjoyed our fair share of trolling over the years, engaging in mischief or acting dramatically to provoke a response from our counterparts, but u/larryskank, a novice troll and tomfoolery enthusiast has leveled up his prank game at the cost of a gang of pesky telemarketers. After weeks of getting 100s of messages on his phone about a 'company that wanted to buy his house', this prankster decided to lean into the lore and offer them a real estate address that no buyer could turn down: The White House. 

Keep scrolling for the hilariously good-natured fun that occurred when this man spent more time on the phone with a telemarketing company than most will in their lifetime just so that he could troll them at their own game.
