Terror telemarketing from abroad
An angry telemarketer didn't appreciate being hung up on. According to Colorado police the telemarketer was explaining the homeowner had won some money, but the homeowner didn't buy it and hung up. But then the phone rang again, and the "pretty rude" telemarketer explained, "I've placed a bomb in your home." Police, were called and they evacuated neighbouring homes.

The homeowner told police the caller "had a very thick accent" and may have been phoning from overseas. (Source: Metro.co.uk)
