I get those scam calls all the time in Skype, I always block the $ucker.
Next time I'll do better.

I'll tell him/her (as I've done in the past with telemarketers):
GEE, THANKS!, I'm so glad you called, I *REALLY* need your help!
Can you hold for a second please?

And then I put the phone down and hang it up when I hear the
'disconnected-call' buzzer...
