It's kinda fun to keep them on the line as long as humanly possible. Most of them aren't going to hang up if you can make them think you might hand over some money. One called me about a Sprint bill for $3k when I'd never used Sprint as a carrier in my life, and wanted me to pay it by credit card, so I kept him on the phone for several hours by talking about fishing (I don't even fish.) without letting him get a word in.
Never heard from them again, plus it kept me amused when I was stuck waiting around for other people to turn up with the hardware I needed.
